An oxidative 3-amination of indole derivatives using hypervalent iodine(III) and bissulfonimides, which proceeds via the formation of indolyl(aryl)iodonium imides, was developed. This reaction was followed by an indole-selective copper-catalyzed oxidative C⁻N coupling reaction to obtain 3-amino indole derivatives as single regioisomers. <i>o</i>-Alkoxy(diacetoxyiodo)arenes showed higher reactivity in the reaction than <i>o</i>-alkyl(diacetoxyiodo)arenes, efficiently promoting the formation of in ...[more]
