Abstract

A practical and efficient Rh(III)-catalyzed aerobic C–H activation has been developed for the facile synthesis of a broad range of indoles from simple anilines and alkynes. The protocol could be conducted under mild conditions and used environmentally friendly oxygen as the sole clear oxidant.
