Ir-catalyzed borylation of 2-substituted indoles selectively yields 7-borylated products in good yields. N-Protection, required for previous functionalizations of 2-substituted indoles, is unnecessary.

A one-pot process was developed to synthesize in moderate to high yield a series of 2-substituted indoles and 7-azaindoles starting from 2-iodo--mesylarylamines and terminal alkynes in the presence of CuO in DMF at 90-120 °C. Without isolation of any intermediate, our optimized conditions enabled the introduction of ester, phenyl, hydroxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, -Boc-aminomethyl, and methyl at the 2-postion of indoles and 7-azaindoles. The reaction tolerates a variety of substrates containing halogens, or acid- or base-sensitive functional groups without requiring a Pd catalyst, a ligand, or a base.

Cancer is a complex disease driven by the dysregulation of multiple signaling pathways and cellular processes. The development of compounds capable of exerting multitarget actions against these key pathways involved in cancer progression is a promising therapeutic approach. Here, a series of novel (/)--(4-(2-(2-(substituted)hydrazineyl)-2-oxoethyl)thiazol-2-yl)-1-indole-2-carboxamide derivatives (-) were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their biological activity.

Herein, we describe a novel reaction between C-2-substituted indoles and 2-nitroacetophenones leading to a variety of indole-containing heterocyclic scaffolds. At 60 °C in AcOH with HSO as catalyst, C-2 aryl indoles give 3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles with high or geometric selectivity depending on the type of substrate utilized. These compounds undergo an electrocyclization process in a sealed vial in a microwave apparatus in DMF at 250 °C to give benzo[]carbazoles and naphtho[2,1-]carbazoles depending on whether the C-2 aromatic moiety is phenyl or naphthyl.

We present here a new method for the synthesis of 2-substituted-3-aryl benzoheterocycles through a more challenging constrained [1,5]-type Friedel-Crafts reaction/rearrangement and aromatization process. By using the readily available 2-aryoxy-1,3-indandiones and 2-arylamino-1,3-indandiones, a range of 2-substituted-3-aryl benzofurans and indoles were prepared in good to excellent yields (yields up to 86%) under the catalysis of CFSOH or Sm(OTf). Compared with previous methods for constructing similar structures, this approach offers several advantages, including the use of easily accessible starting materials, mild reaction conditions, high yield, excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity, and a broad substrate scope.

Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid effectively facilitates the migration of the substituent from C3- to C2-position of the indole structure. The resulting C2-substituted indoles offer a valuable pathway for the synthesis of natural products and medicinal compounds.
