Abstract
A novel Pd-catalyzed method for the synthesis of indolo[1, 2-f]phenanthridines from 2-bromo-2′-iodo-1,1′-biphenyl and indole derivatives has been reported. The reaction involves direct N−H and C2-H arylation of indole. This Pd-catalyzed double arylation provides a useful route to synthesize indolo[1, 2-f]phenanthridine derivatives from simple and readily accessible starting materials.
