---|---|
Named after | Louis S. Hegedus |
Reaction type | Ring forming reaction |
TheHegedus indole synthesis is aname reaction inorganic chemistry that allows for the generation ofindoles throughpalladium(II)-mediated oxidative cyclization of ortho-alkenyl anilines.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The reaction can still take place fortosyl-protected amines.[4]
2-Allylaniline can be converted to2-Methylindole using the Hegedus indole synthesis.[1]
