We report the use of electrochemistry to perform a direct oxidative dearomatization indoles leading 2,3-dialkoxy or 2,3-diazido indolines under undivided conditions at constant current. This operationally simple electro-oxidative procedure avoids an external oxidant and displays excellent functional group compatibility. The formation two C-O C-N bonds is believed arise from oxidation into radical cation intermediates.
Abstract Inspired by the biogenetic synthesis of benzofuroindoline‐containing natural products, we designed an oxidative coupling between phenol and N ‐acetyl indoles. This straightforward direct radical process, mediated 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyano‐1,4‐benzoquinone FeCl 3 allowed regioselective benzofuro[3,2‐b]indolines, whose structure is found in product phalarine.
IRONic electrophilic indoles! The C3-regioselective hydroarylation of N-acetyl indoles with aromatic nucleophiles mediated by FeCl(3) features a rare example the reactivity indole core in Friedel-Crafts reaction. This umpolung allows us straightforward access to tetracyclic benzofuroindoline motif found natural product diazonamide A, which is potent antitumor agent.
In control! N-alkoxybicyclolactams derived from the ring-rearrangement metathesis of nitroso Diels–Alder cycloadducts were subjected to successive addition two nucleophiles yield substituted piperidine or pyrrolidine precursors with good excellent stereoselectivity. The relative configuration newly formed stereocenter can be controlled by order nucleophiles. Detailed facts importance specialist readers are published as "Supporting Information". Such documents peer-reviewed, but not...
The straightforward entry to benzofuroindoline containing natural product-like scaffolds has been achieved by a challenging [3 + 2] oxidative coupling between phenols and indoles. reaction proceeds NIS-oxidation of the indole followed trapping resulting electrophilic intermediate phenol.

The 3a-bromofuranoindolines 3a-bromopyrroloindolines obtained are interest in total synthesis natural products. This dearomative procedure relies on generation electrophilic bromine reagent by oxidation MgBr2. No organic byproducts generated with this protocol which avoids use additional electrolyte.
An efficient domino reaction combining different classes of pericyclic reactions leads to chiral complex polycyclic indoline-based architectures from achiral starting materials under mild conditions. This practical method is based on the ability iron(III) chloride promote both 4π electrocyclizations 2,4-dienals and C2–C3 umpolung N-acetylindoles during dearomative (3 + 2) cycloadditions.
