Abstract A series of short tryptophan‐phenylalanine peptides containing an iodo substituent on the phenyl ring was subjected to Pd‐catalyzed CH activation reactions give corresponding aryl‐indole coupled products. Two types adducts were generated: cyclomonomer and cyclodimeric peptides; no evidence oligo‐ or polymerization products detected. Contrary standard peptide macrocyclizations, factors controlling fate reaction are number amino acids between aromatic residues regiochemistry parent...

Abstract Multiple multicomponent reactions rapidly assemble complex structures. Despite being very productive, the lack of selectivity and reduced number viable transformations restrict their general application in synthesis. Hereby, we describe a rationale for selective version these processes based preferential generation intermediates which are less reactive than initial substrates. In this way, applying Groebke–Blackburn–Bienaymé reaction on range α‐polyamino‐polyazines, prepared family...
