From: Synthesis of Structurally Diverse 2,3-Fused Indoles via Microwave-Assisted AgSbF6-Catalysed Intramolecular Difunctionalization of o-Alkynylanilines

  1. aThe reaction was conducted with 1a (1 equiv) and 2a (1.2 equiv) in the presence of catalyst (10 mol%) under microwave conditions in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) for 1–3 h at 80 °C, unless otherwise stated. Ts = 4-methylphenylsulfonyl.
  2. bThe yields given are isolated yields.
  3. cThis reaction was conducted without microwave assistance.
