Copper-Mediated and Copper-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Indoles and 1,3-Azoles: Double C-H Activation

The described copper-mediated cross-coupling with double C-H activation can provide a convergent access to indole-containing biheteroaryls that are of high interest in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry. In this strategy an easily attachable and detachable 2-pyrimidyl directing group is used. Moreover, a variant that is catalytic in copper is achieved by using atmospheric oxygen as an ideal co-oxidant (see scheme).
