title: Synthesis of indole-3-carboxylic acid derivatives by Pd(0)-catalyzed intramolecular alpha-arylation of beta-(2-iodoanilino) esters.
abstract: beta-(2-Iodoanilino) esters undergo intramolecular alpha-arylation in the presence of Pd(PPh(3))(4) and potassium phenoxide. The reaction is a useful methodology for the preparation of indole-3-carboxylic acid ester derivatives.
