Abstract
The use of a rhodium catalyst enables a catalytic synthesis of 2-substituted indole-3-carboxamides in very good yields from 2-ethynylanilines and isocyanates via a tandem-type, cyclization-addition sequence under mild reaction conditions. The broad substrate scope and good functional group compatibility make the method highly efficient and widely applicable.
