Rhodium-catalyzed intramolecular annulation via C–H activation leading to fused tricyclic indole scaffolds

Abstract

The rhodium(III)-catalyzed intramolecular annulation of alkyne-tethered acetanilides for the synthesis of fused tricyclic indole scaffolds via C–H activation has been developed, which has the potential for the synthesis of many indole alkaloids. This reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions and with tolerance to a variety of functional groups.
