Abstract
2-Amino-3-(arylthio)indoles were conveniently synthesized via the Rh(ii)-catalyzed C-S/N-C coupling reaction between 3-diazoindol-2-imines and thioesters. The products could be further oxidized to 2-amino-3-(arylsulfonyl)indoles by m-chloroperbenzoic acid and the N-sulfonyl group could be easily removed by reduction with SmI2.
