Key Points

The aim is to explore a new Pd(II)-catalyzed method for regioselective modifications of indoles.
Utilized Pd(II) as a catalyst for reactions.
Employed 2-pyridyl sulfoxide as a directing group.
Conducted reactions with iodoarenes and both activated and unactivated alkenes.
Achieved regioselective C2-arylation and alkenylation of indoles.

Abstract

The present study reports a Pd(II)-catalysed regioselective C2-arylation and alkenylation of indoles using iodoarenes and activated/unactivated alkenes, respectively, directed by 2-pyridyl sulfoxide at the C3-position of indole for the first...
