Temperature-Dependent, Switchable Synthesis of α-Carbolines and Tetrahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indoles via Formal [4 + 1 + 1] and [3 + 1 + 1] Cyclizations
A switchable one-pot, three-component cyclization of 3-vinylindoles, sulfonyl azides, and α-bromoketones has been developed for the synthesis of α-carbolines and tetrahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indoles. The advantages of this strategy include excellent product selectivity, good functional group tolerance, highly functionalized products, and mild conditions.
