Practical synthesis of indoles and benzofurans in water using a heterogeneous bimetallic catalyst

This paper describes the preparation of indoles, azaindoles and benzofurans in pure water by using a new heterogeneous Pd–Cu/C catalyst through a cascade Sonogashira alkynylation–cyclization sequence. Details of the optimization studies and the substrate scope are discussed. This procedure allows th...

description This paper describes the preparation of indoles, azaindoles and benzofurans in pure water by using a new heterogeneous Pd–Cu/C catalyst through a cascade Sonogashira alkynylation–cyclization sequence. Details of the optimization studies and the substrate scope are discussed. This procedure allows the preparation of heterocycles with good yields and is tolerant to a wide variety of functional groups.
