Benzofurans and indoles are key moieties in many natural products and pharmaceuticals. Herein, we describe a cheap and easy-to-execute strategy for the synthesis of benzofurans and indoles, employing Pd/C as the promoter. A variety of substituted allyl-anilines and allyl-phenols were converted into the desired products in good to excellent yields. Recycling of Pd/C was possible up to five cycles, keeping similar levels of reactivity.

Employing a green and efficient 2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenone-catalyzed oxidation of alkenes, which utilizes H2O2 as the green oxidant, a novel and sustainable synthesis of indolines and pyrrolidines was developed. This constitutes a cheap, general and environmentally-friendly protocol for the synthesis of substituted nitrogen-containing heterocycles. A variety of substitution patterns, both aromatic and aliphatic moieties, are well tolerated leading to the desired nitrogen heterocycles in good to excellent yields. (Figure presented.).

A Cu(OAc)2-promoted cascade carboamination/oxidative cyclization of alkenes with a-imino esters has been explored. This transformation provides a concise approach to rapid assembly of 2-oxo-3-iminopyrrole derivatives in moderate to good yields.
