Abstract

A one-pot method enables the synthesis of multisubstituted indolizines from α-halo carbonyl compounds, pyridines, and electron-deficient alkenes via oxidative dehydrogenation under transition-metal-free conditions using TEMPO as an oxidant. This protocol uses readily available starting materials in a convenient procedure under mild reaction conditions.
