The free amine-directed C-H functionalization reactions are challenging and mainly restricted to bulky amines. In this work, we report the nonsteric NH2-directed Pd(II)-catalyzed intramolecular C(sp2)-H arylation of tryptamines, which enables the efficient, gram-scale, and regioselective synthesis of versatile 2-aryltryptamines (35 examples, up to 98% yield). This approach broadens the substrate scope of the free amine-directed C-H functionalization, not limited to bulky amine substrates. Late-stage elaborations of 2-aryltryptamines achieve the divergent construction of the complex core structures that are prevalent in highly valuable natural products such as aurantioclavine, chimonanthine, and phalarine.

(matrix presented) Various tryptamines are captured by a vinylsulfonylmethyl polystyrene resin, generating a safety-catch linkage. β-Carbolines can be formed from 4 by a Pictet-Spengler reaction with the introduction of R1. Tryptamine 4 can also be derivatized by acylation or copper-mediated coupling to introduce R2. If X = Br, Suzuki coupling can be used to introduce R3. After derivatization, the indole derivatives are activated with methyl iodide and released under mild basic condition.
