Performing solution-phase oximation reactions with hydroxylamine hydrochloride (NH2OH·HCl) carries significant risk, especially in aqueous solutions. In the present study, four N-substituted indole-3-carboxaldehyde oximes were prepared from the corresponding aldehydes by solvent-free reaction with NH2OH·HCl and a base (NaOH or Na2CO3)
A benzyne-mediated synthesis of substituted indolines and carbazoles was developed. The reaction includes generation of benzyne using Mg(TMP)2·2LiCl as a base, cyclization, and trapping the resulting organomagnesium intermediate with an electrophile to provide a series of substituted indolines and carbazoles

An enantioselective arylation-cyclization cascade has been accomplished using a combination of diaryliodonium salts and asymmetric copper catalysis. These mild catalytic conditions provide a new strategy for the enantioselective construction of pyrroloindolines, an important alkaloid structural motif that is commonly found
An efficient construction of fused indolines with a 2-quaternary center through a palladium-catalyzed intramolecular Heck reaction of N-(2(2-halobenzoxyl)-2,3-disubstituted indoles is disclosed. This protocol provided a straightforward access to diverse fused indolines with good functional group tolerance.

The first highly enantioselective copper-catalyzed intramolecular Ullmann C-N coupling reaction has been developed. The asymmetric desymmetrization of 1,3-bis(2-iodoaryl)propan-2-amines catalyzed by CuI/(R)-BINOL-derived ligands led to the enantioselective formation of indolines in high yields and excellent enantiomeric excesses. This method was also
