Abstract
A simple two-step convergent protocol gives direct access to synthetic intermediate A from ortho-iodoanilines. Intermediate A can be treated with NIS in CH2Cl2 to induce novel iodonium mediated domino reaction cascade, which provides direct access to ring-fused indole compounds B. Simply by changing the reaction conditions, this protocol can be directed down an alternative domino reaction cascade to give various ring fused quinoline compounds C.
