We have developed catalyst-controlled regiodivergent rearrangements of onium-ylides derived from indole substrates. Oxonium ylides formed in situ from substituted indoles selectively undergo [2,3]- and [1,2]-rearrangements in the presence of a rhodium and a copper catalyst, respectively. The combined experimental and density functional theory (DFT) computational studies indicate divergent mechanistic pathways involving a metal-free ylide in the rhodium catalyzed reaction favoring [2,3]-rearrangement, and a metal-coordinated ion-pair in the copper catalyzed [1,2]-rearrangement that recombines in the solvent-cage. The application of our methodology was demonstrated in the first total synthesis of the indole alkaloid (±)-sorazolon B, which enabled the stereochemical reassignment of the natural product. Further functional group transformations of the rearrangement products to generate valuable synthetic intermediates were also demonstrated.

Novel and efficient Mn(OAc)3?2H2O promoted radical addition-[4 + 1] cyclization relay of 3-indolymethanols and phosphites was disclosed, which afforded 1,2-oxaphospholoindole derivatives in moderate to good yields. Based on the experimental and computational studies, a mechanism involving radical addition and intramolecular cyclization cascade was proposed.

The asymmetric dearomatization-addition reaction of halomethyloxazoles and halomethylindoles with aldehydes is realized in the presence of a carbazole-based bisoxazoline CrCl 2 complex to afford the corresponding enantioenriched, hydroxylated oxazoline and indoline products. The observed excellent chemo-, regio-, diastereo- and enantioselectivities are notable advantages of this protocol. The strategy established in this study is expected to find application in the synthesis of azaheterocycles with biological significance and useful functionalities.
