A simple, straightforward strategy for the synthesis of polyheterocyclic compounds (PHCs) is reported, which involves iterative cycles of palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira coupling, followed by iodocyclization using I(2) or ICl. A variety of heterocyclic units, including benzofurans, benzothiophenes, indoles, and isocoumarins, can be efficiently incorporated under mild reaction conditions. In addition, variations of this strategy afford a variety of linked and fused PHCs. ...[more]
