Michael addition to unprotected 3-(2-nitrovinyl)indoles under the conditions of microwave synthesis

A novel highly efficient preparative method for the synthesis of substituted indoles using conjugate addition of nucleophiles to 3-(2-nitrovinyl)indoles has been developed. The addition of nucleophiles generated in the presence of a base from CH acids was investigated. The studied reactions proceed quickly and smoothly under the conditions of microwave activation and do not require protection of the indole nitrogen atom. © 2016 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
