Lo, Wei Fun published the artcileA highly selective Ir-catalyzed borylation of 2-substituted indoles: a new access to 2,7- and 2,4,7-substituted indoles, Name: 2-Methyl-7-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-indole, the publication is Tetrahedron Letters (2007), 48(3), 371-375, database is CAplus.
The selective CH-functionalization of 2-substituted indoles was presented. Using bis(pinacolato)diboron in the presence of iridium complexes, a novel catalytic mono-borylation was observed preferentially at the 7-position of the indole. This allowed for an efficient synthesis of various 2,7-di- and 2,4,7-trisubstituted indoles, e.g., I (R = Me, Ph or CO2Et), which are otherwise difficult to access. The scope and limitation of the method was demonstrated.
