Cobalt-catalysed reductive C-H alkylation of indoles using carboxylic acids and molecular hydrogen

Cobalt-catalysed reductive C-H alkylation of indoles using carboxylic acids and molecular hydrogen
Rosa Adam, Jose R. Cabrero-Antonino, Matthias Beller, Kathrin Junge
The first direct CH-alkylation of indoles using carboxylic acids and hydrogen is presented. A non-noble metal based catalytic system, [Co(acac)3/Triphos/Al(OTf)3], efficiently catalyses the alkylation of a variety of indoles with a wide range of carboxylic acids.
