Copper–iodine co-catalyzed C–H aminoalkenylation of indoles <i>via</i> temperature-controlled selectivity switch: facile synthesis of 2-azolyl-3-alkenylindoles

Abstract

An efficient copper–iodine co-catalyzed 2,3-difunctionalization of indoles with azoles and phenols via temperature-controlled selectivity switch has been developed for the green synthesis of 2-azolyl-3-alkenylindoles.
