Ruthenium‐ and Rhodium‐Catalyzed CH Bond Allylation of 2‐Aryl‐3 <i>H</i> ‐Indoles With Vinylcyclopropanes
The Ru(II)‐ and Rh(III)‐catalyzed CH/CC bond activation and subsequent allylation of 2‐aryl‐3 H ‐indoles with vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs), 2‐vinyl‐ethylene oxide, and 2‐vinylaziridine are reported, enabling the expedient preparation of a wide spectrum for indole derivatives. This transformation proceeds using a cascade sequence involving CH bond activation, CC bond cleavage of VCPs, and 1,2‐migratory alkene insertion.
