Radical-carbene coupling reaction: Mn-catalyzed synthesis of indoles from aromatic amines and diazo compounds

Abstract

An unprecedented coupling reaction between aromatic amines and diazo compounds was well developed, which afforded a bridge connecting between radical chemistry and metal carbene chemistry. This Mn-catalyzed tandem reaction also provided a fundamentally different and practical approach to the indole skeleton under mild conditions.
