3-Nitroindoles are synthetically versatile intermediates but current methods for the preparation hinder their widespread application. Herein, we report that nitroenamines undergo electrochemical cyclisation to 3-nitroindoles in the presence of potassium iodide. Detailed control experiments and cyclic voltammogram studies infer the reaction proceedsviaa sequential paired electrolysis process, beginning with anodic oxidation of iodide (I?) to the iodine radical (I˙), which facilitates cyclisation of the nitroenamine to give a 3-nitroindolinyl radical. Cathodic reduction and protonation generates a 3-nitroindoline that upon oxidation forms the 3-nitroindole.

An efficient, mild, and metal-free approach to direct diazenylation of N-heterocyclic compounds with aryltriazenes using Br?nsted ionic liquid as a promoter has been developed for the first time. Many N-heterocyclic azo compounds were synthesized in good to excellent yields at room temperature under an open atmosphere. Notably, the promoter 1,3-bis(4-sulfobutyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium hydrogen sulfate could be conveniently recycled and reused with the same efficacies for at least four cycles.
Metal-free nitrative cyclization of N-aryl imines with tert-butyl nitrite: Dehydrogenative access to 3-nitroindoles

We describe here a new metal-free route for the synthesis of 3-nitroindoles by the nitrative cyclization of N-aryl imines with tert-butyl nitrite. The radical transformation allows the assembly of the indole framework through oxidative cleavage of multi C-H bonds, a nitration, cyclization and isomerization cascade.
