Abstract:The reaction of 2‐styrylacetanilides (2) with N‐phenylselenosuccinimide affords 1‐N‐acetyl‐2‐phenyl‐3‐phenylselenoindoles (3) and 1‐N‐acetyl‐2‐phenylindoles (4). The reaction of 2‐vinylacetanilides (5) with phenylselenenyl bromide proceeds to form indoles via an intramolecular amidoselenation.
“…A similar scenario for the initial electrophilic activation of the alkene moiety was recently suggested by Denmark and co-workers in the context of a syn -specific dichlorination of olefins by a selenium(IV) catalyst . Other chalcogen-based electrophiles, such as sulfenium ions, were also shown to function as competent promoters for stoichiometric C–H amination reactions of alkenes (Scheme ) …”
A new selenium-catalyzed protocol for the direct, intramolecular amination of C(sp(2))-H bonds using N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide as the terminal oxidant is reported. This method enables the facile formation of a broad range of diversely functionalized indoles and azaindoles derived from easily accessible ortho-vinyl anilines and vinylated aminopyridines, respectively. The procedure exploits the pronounced carbophilicity of selenium electrophiles for the catalytic activation of alkenes and leads to the formation of C(sp(2))-N bonds in high yields and with excellent functional group tolerance.

“…Bisherige vergleichbare chalcogenbasierte Zyklisierungsreaktionen basierten auf dem Einsatz eines Überschusses an Sulfeniumverbindungen als Oxidationsmittel. [202][203][204] Entgegen des untersuchten Tosylimids 94 scheint die Tosylamidgruppe einen guten Kompromiss zwischen der Azidität der N -H-Bindung und der Nukleophilie des N-Atoms darzustellen, was in einer für die Zyklisierung geeigneten Reaktivität resultiert. Aufbauend auf diesem vielversprechenden Ergebnis wurden in der Folge die Reaktionsbedingungen optimiert und die Substratbreite der Umsetzung näher untersucht.…”
