Described herein is the first example of the palladium-catalyzed coupling of vinylogous amides with aryl bromides and chlorides. The scope of this reaction with respect to the aryl component is investigated. Additionally, a tandem reaction sequence in which the above coupling is followed by an intramolecular Heck reaction is presented. These reactions can be applied to high-yielding, one-pot syntheses of nitrogen-containing heterocycles.

N-Benzyl-N-phenylhydrazine derivatives of 1,3-diketones and 1,3-ketoesters undergo normal Fischer cyclisations to indoles, but no method could be found for the subsequent removal of the N-protecting group.No method could be found for the indolisation of N-aroyl-N-phenylhydrazine derivatives of dimedone with retention of the N-protecting group, though heating in tetralin did effect the electrocyclic step of the Fischer sequence and the formation of a carbon-carbon bond.
