Typical Procedure for the preparation of α-alkynyl-indole 4a: Under the protection of nitrogen, Pd(OAc)2 (5 mol%) and Xantphos (10 mol%) were added to NMP (2 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 15 min, then o-bromo-2-(2,2-dibromovinyl)benzene (0.4 mmol), phenylacetylene (0.4 mmol), and aniline (0.3 mmol) were added and the reaction mixture was stirred at 120 ˚C for 5 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with water and extracted with Et2O. The organic extract was washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was then evaporated in vacuo and the residue was purified by using a SiO2 column (petroleum ether-ethyl acetate, 100:1) to afford 1-phenyl-2-(phenylethynyl)-1H-indole (4a) as a colorless solid (80%, 70 mg). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 6.99 (s, 1 H), 7.12-7.16 (m, 1 H), 7.17-7.22 (m, 4 H), 7.27-7.30 (m, 3 H), 7.38 (t, J = 8.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.46-7.54 (m, 4 H), 7.62 (d, J = 7.2 Hz, 1 H); ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 81.78, 95.25, 109.35, 110.48, 120.89, 120.95, 121.88, 122.64, 123.63, 127.25, 127.49, 127.56, 128.25, 128.30, 128.95, 131.04, 137.47, 137.56; HRMS (ESI): m/z calcd for C22H16N+: 294.1277; found: 294.1274
