Abstract

A new synthetic method is developed which enables a direct one-step introduction of a cyano group into electron-rich heterocyclic systems of the indole, pyrrole, and indolizine series, and also to enamines using isocyanatophosphoryl dichloride.

Key words

nitriles - isocyanatophosphoryl dichloride - indoles - pyrroles - indolizines - enamines
