Metal-Free Synthesis\nof 2‑(per)Fluoroalkyl-3-nitro\nIndoles via Intramolecular Cyclization of Amides
A metal-free intramolecular cyclization\nof N-acyl amides for the\nsynthesis of 3-nitro-2-(per)fluoroalkyl indoles is reported. Good\nfunctional group tolerance and a broad range of substrates are the\nfeatures of this approach. The developed method is easy to operate\nand is suitable for the preparation of 2-difluoromethyl/trifluoromethyl/perfluoroethyl/perfluoropropyl\nindoles in yields of 84 to 99%. Also, the application of this protocol\nin the gram scale is shown.
