Copper‐Catalyzed C–H Insertion of N ‐Heterocycles Into Diazo Arylidene Succinimides

Copper(II) triflate is found to be an effective catalyst for the regioselective C–H insertion of heteroaromatic compounds into diazo arylidene succinimide‐based carbene precursors. Preferential C3–H insertion occurs in N ‐substituted and unsubstituted indoles, while selective C2–...
