A new, simple and straightforward cascade reaction involving the Pd-catalyzed isocyanide insertion followed by a nucleophilic attack by the indole C-3 has been developed. The

For the first time TFAA/H3PO4 has facilitated the direct and metal-free N-acylation of carbazoles leading to a number of N-acylated derivatives. Several of these compounds were found to be promising when tested for their anti-proliferative properties against oral cancer cell lines.
