A facile synthesis of 2, 5-disubstituted indole derivatives as new fluorescent dyes
A novel bis-arylated indole derivative, 2,5-bis(2-naphthyl)-l-methyl-lH- indole, was prepared and characterized. This compound shows the highly pure blue emissions both in solution and solid state which were ascribed to the expanded π-conjugation by intro
Expedient synthesis of N-fused indoles: A C-F activation and C-H insertion approach
Easy does it: A wide range of N-fused indole skeletons, which are core structures of many biologically potent molecules, are successfully furnished by a niobiumcatalyzed C(sp3)-H insertion reaction (see picture). The precursors are readily prepared by a palladium-catalyzed amination reaction of bromotrifluorotoluenes with cyclic amines.
