An efficient GaCl-catalyzed direct cyanation of indoles and pyrroles using bench-stable electrophilic cyanating agent N-cyanosuccinimide was achieved and afforded 3-cyanoindoles and 2-cyanopyrroles in good yields and excellent regioselectivities. Notably, this protocol exhibited high reactivity for unprotected indoles and was applicable to a broad range of indole and pyrrole substrates.
实现了一种高效的GaCl催化的吲哚和吡咯直接氰化反应，该反应使用易于储存的亲电氰化试剂N-氰基琥珀酰亚胺，以良好的产率和优异的区域选择性得到了3-氰基吲哚和2-氰基吡咯。值得注意的是，该方法对未保护的吲哚表现出高反应活性，并且适用于广泛的吲哚和吡咯底物。
