Abstract

The addition of Ru3(CO)12, dimethylcarbonate, or both to the reaction mixture improves the selectivity of the palladium-phenanthroline catalyzed reaction of nitroarenes, arylalkynes and CO to give 3-arylindoles. When 4-fluorophenylacetylene and nitrobenzene are used as substrates, the indole skeleton of Fluvastatin and other pharmaceutically active compounds is obtained in one step.
