Salicylaldehyde-Promoted Cobalt-Catalyzed C-H/N-H Annulation of Indolyl Amides with Alkynes: Direct Synthesis of a 5-HT3 Receptor Antagonist Analogue

A cobalt-catalyzed annulation of the C(sp2)-H/N-H bond of indoloamides with alkynes assisted by 8-aminoquinoline is reported for the synthesis of six-membered indololactams. The use of salicylaldehyde as the ligand is crucial for this transformation. The protocol has a broad scope for both alkynes and indoles. Preparing an active Co complex illustrates that salicylaldehyde plays a key role in the C-H activation step. The synthetic applications are proven by the gram-scale reaction and one-step construction of the multicyclic 5-HT3 receptor antagonist.
