These reactions provide access to biologically relevant five- and six-membered substituted cyclopentaindolones, carbazolones, and indenoindolones in high yields and good chemoselectivity employing an air-stable and defined nickel catalyst, (bpy)Ni(OAc)(2). The oxidative cyclizations proceeded either through a six-membered or an unconventional seven-membered nickelacycle. An extensive mechanistic investigation by experiments and theoretical calculations revealed a facile indole's C(2)-H nickelation and a rate-limiting reductive elimination process. This intramolecular oxidative cyclization operates via a probable Ni(II)/Ni(III) pathway involving single-electron oxidation of nickel without the participation of a carbon-based radical.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13.084</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vijaykumar, Muniyappa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gonnade, Rajesh G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Punji, Benudhar</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palladium-catalyzed regioselective C(4)-H fluoroalkoxylation of indoles through weak chelation assistance</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ChemCatChem</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">C-H activation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">indoles</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palladium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regioselective</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trifluoroalkoxylation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;
	Installing fluoroalkyl motifs into biorelevant indoles is particularly interesting due to their ubiquitous presence in drug molecules. Herein, we demonstrate the regioselective C4 fluoroalkoxylation of indoles using fluoroalcohols via palladium-catalyzed chelation-assisted C &amp;amp; horbar;H activation. The weak chelating benzoyl moiety at the C3 position acts as a directing group for remote C(4)&amp;amp; horbar;H fluoroalkoxylation of diversely substituted indoles. This methodology demonstrates a high level of regioselectivity and tolerates a range of crucial functional groups, yielding diverse trifluoroalkoxylated indoles in moderate to good yields. Removal of directing/protecting groups and further functionalization established the synthetic utility of the methodology. A preliminary mechanistic investigation is conducted by isolating the palladacycle intermediate and performing the deuterium scrambling study. The regioselective C4 fluoroalkoxylation of indoles with various fluoroalcohols is achieved by the palladium-catalyzed weak chelation assistance strategy. The reaction is compatible for a range of important functionalities and proceeds via the intermediacy of a six-membered palladacycle following a Pd(II)/Pd(IV) pathway. image&lt;/p&gt;
