A sequential allene synthesis and cyclization has been realized in a one-pot manner. A Pd(0)-catalyzed one-pot reaction of N-Ts or -Ms 2-iodoanilines and propargylic bromides afforded indoles with pharmaceutical importance highly efficiently with diversity via sequential carbon-carbon bond coupling forming allenes and azapalladation. With this newly established methodology, an efficient approach to indomethacin, an anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), has been accomplished.
