A Simple Route to Polysubstituted Indoles Exploiting Azide Induced Furan Ring Opening

Abstract: A straightforward, efficient indole synthesis based on thermolysis of 2-(2-azidobenzyl)furans with attack of the formed nitrene moiety onto the ipso position of furan ring has been developed. The cyclization is accompanied by furan ring opening and affords indoles with a 2-acylvinyl substituent suitable for further modifications.

“…General procedure for the synthesis of 2‐azido benzaldehydes derivatives (8) : Synthesis of 8 a – e were carried out according to a reported procedure by treating substituted 2‐nitrobenzaldehyde (1.0 equiv) with NaN 3 (1.5 equiv) in HMPA to give the desired products in satisfactory yields. Their spectroscopic data match those of the previously reported compounds 11b…”
