Indoles and Related Heterocycles

چکیده
Indole and the related heterocycles have emerged as efficient building blocks for the creation of novel anion receptors. This chapter focuses on the employment of indoles, carbazoles, and indolocarbazoles in the creation of molecular clefts, macrocycles, oligomers, and sensors. The majority of these structures utilize the heterocyclic NH as a hydrogen bond donor in binding to anions of various sizes and geometries. These heterocycles are often connected by amides and ureas which also function as hydrogen bond donors in anion binding. Finally, molecular sensors based on indoles and carbazoles have been described, showing color or fluorescence changes upon anion binding or deprotonation of the heterocyclic NH by basic anions.

Correction to Synthesis of Heterocycles via Pd-Ligand Controlled Cyclization of 2-Chloro-N-(2-vinyl)aniline: Preparation of Carbazoles, Indoles, Dibenzazepines, and Acridines.
The Pd-catalyzed condensation of 2-bromostyrene and 2-chloroaniline derivatives yields stable diphenylamine intermediates, which are selectively converted to five-, six-, or seven-membered heteroaromatics (indoles, carbazoles, acridines, and dibenzazepines). The selectivity of these intramolecular transformations is uniquely ligand-controlled and offers efficient routes to four important classe...
متن کاملSimple copper salt-catalyzed N-arylation of nitrogen-containing heterocycles with aryl and heteroaryl halides.
Relatively mild and highly efficient CuI-catalyzed N-arylation procedures for nitrogen-containing heterocycles (e.g., imidazoles, benzimidazoles, pyrroles, pyrazoles, indoles, triazoles, etc.) with aryl and heteroaryl halides have been developed. The protocols can be performed easily and tolerate a number of functional groups, such as ester, nitrile, nitro, ketone, free hydroxyl, and free prima...

A novel one-pot synthesis of N-substituted heterocycles via successive cyclization/annelation starting from primary sulfonamides is described. This process leads directly to N-sulfonyl pyrroles, indoles and carbazoles. The selection of appropriate reactant/triflic acid ratio successfully controls the formation of the desired product.
