Shi, Xiaolin;Wang, Zemin;Li, Yuxiu;Li, Xiaowei;Li, Xiangqian;Shi, Dayong research published 《 Palladium-Catalyzed Remote C-H Phosphonylation of Indoles at the C4 and C6 Positions by a Radical Approach》, the research content is summarized as follows. Palladium-catalyzed direct C-H activation of indole benzenoid moiety has been achieved in the past decade. However, palladium-catalyzed remote C-H activation of indoles is rare. Herein, we report a challenging palladium-catalyzed remote C4-H phosphonylation of indoles by a radical approach. The method provides access to a series of C4-phosphonylated indoles, including tryptophan and tryptophan-containing dipeptides, which are typically inaccessible by direct C4-H activation due to its heavy reliance on C3 directing groups. Notably, unexpected C6-phosphonylated indoles were obtained through blocking of the C4 position. The preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that the reactions may proceed via a C7-palladacycle/remote-activation process. Based on the strategy, examples of remote C4-H difluoromethylation with BrCF2COOEt are also presented, suggesting that the strategy may offer a general blueprint for other cross-couplings.

3-Indoleacetonitrile (Indolylacetonitrile) is a light-induced auxin-inhibitory substance that is isolated from light-grown cabbage (Brassica olearea L.) shoots. It inhibits the biofilm formation of both E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa without affecting its growth.
3-Indoleacetonitrile, also known as 3-(cyanomethyl)indole or IAN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 3-alkylindoles. 3-alkylindoles are compounds containing an indole moiety that carries an alkyl chain at the 3-position. 3-Indoleacetonitrile exists as a solid and is considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral. Within the cell, 3-indoleacetonitrile is primarily located in the mitochondria. 3-Indoleacetonitrile participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be biosynthesized from acetonitrile. 3-Indoleacetonitrile is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, cys(ian)-gly, gammaglucys(ian), and L-cys(ian). Outside of the human body, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be found in a number of food items such as cloudberry, japanese persimmon, horned melon, and evergreen huckleberry. This makes 3-indoleacetonitrile a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Indole-3-acetonitrile is a nitrile that is acetonitrile where one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a 1H-indol-3-yl group. It has a role as an auxin, a plant hormone, a plant metabolite and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a nitrile and a member of indoles. It derives from an acetonitrile., 771-51-7.
