Abstract

Abstract A facile access to differently substituted indoles using palladium catalyzed annulation reactions under microwave enhanced conditions has been achieved. A highly active and efficient catalytic system PdCl 2/(A-taphos) for the synthesis of indole via palladium catalyzed ring annulation of ortho iodo anilines and aldehydes has been developed.
