Using weak interactions to control C-H mono-nitration of indolines.

TL;DR: An unprecedented C-H mononitration of indolines either at the -C5 or -C7 positions under mild condition is reported, and a 100% regioselective electrophilic aromatic (EArS) nitration using Cu(NO3)2 or AgNO3.

New strategies for the synthesis of N-alkylated indoles (Review)

TL;DR: In this article, a review of methods for the synthesis of N-alkylated indoles both as a result of direct introduction of the alkyl substituent at the nitrogen atom and by construction of the indole heterocyclic system are reviewed.
