An efficient and regioselective synthesis of 4- and 7-alkoxyindoles has been developed from commercially available starting materials such as 3-halophenols and 3-chloroanisole. Directed ortho-metalation followed by two palladium-catalyzed processes, a Sonogashira coupling and a tandem amination/cyclization reaction, allows the synthesis
