Abstract: | Depending on the conditions employed, gold(I)-catalyzed addition of indoles to 3,3-disubstituted cyclopropenes can be controlled to yield either 3-(E)-vinylindoles (3) or bis-indolylalkanes (4). If the cyclopropene substituents are sterically bulky, unprecedented gold-catalyzed oxidation under air occurs to yield bis-indolylalkene (5) and epoxide (6) at room temperature. |
