Cascade Reactions of Enone‐Tethered Ketones and Aldehydes with Indoles: Substrate‐Controlled Divergent Synthesis of Indenes and Indanes Open
A cascade strategy involving the reactions of enone‐tethered ketones with indoles for the synthesis of indenes is outlined in the presence of iodine as a catalyst. Halogen bonding between molecular iodine and enones activates substrates to…
