Atropoisomeric (hetero)biaryls are scaffolds with increasing importance in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. Although it is the most obvious disconnection to construct such compounds, the direct enantioselective C–H arylation through the concomitant induction of the chiral information remains extremely challenging and uncommon. Herein, the unprecedented earth-abundant 3d-metal-catalyzed atroposelective direct arylation is reported, furnishing rare atropoisomeric C2-arylated indoles. Kinetic studies and DFT computation revealed an uncommon mechanism for this asymmetric transformation, with the oxidative addition being the rate- and enantio-determining step. Excellent stereoselectivities were reached (up to 96% ee), while using an unusual N-heterocyclic carbene ligand bearing an essential remote substituent. Attractive dispersion interactions along with positive C–H-π interactions exerted by the ligand were identified as key factors to guarantee the excellent enantioselection.

A variety of structurally novel polycyclic sulfonyl indolines have been synthesized via FeCl2-catalyzed or UV-driven intramolecular formal [2 + 2 + 1] dearomatizing cyclization reactions of N-(1H-indol-3-yl)methyl)propiolamides with NaHSO3 in an aqueous medium. The reactions involve the formation of one C-C bond and two C-S bonds in a single step.

Metal-free and heterogeneous organic photocatalysts provide an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional metal-based catalysts. This paper reports a series of carbazole-based conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) with tunable redox potentials and explores their photocatalytic performance with regard to C-3 formylation and thiocyanation of indoles. Conjugated polymers were synthesized through FeCl3 mediated Friedel-Crafts reactions, and their redox potentials were well regulated by simply altering the nature of the core (i.e., 1,4-dibenzyl, 1,3,5-tribenzyl, or 1,3,5-triazin-2,4,6-triyl). The resulting CMPs exhibited high surface areas, visible light absorptions, and tunable semiconductor-range band gaps. With the highest oxidative capability, CMP-CSU6 derived from 1,3,5-tri(9H-carbazol-9-yl)benzene showed the highest efficiency for C-3 formylation and thiocyanation of indoles at room temperature. Notably, the as-made catalysts can be easily recovered with good retention of photocatalytic activity and reused at least five times, suggesting good recyclability. These results are significant for constructing high-performance porous polymer catalysts with tunable photoredox potentials targeting an efficient material design for catalysis.
