摘要
An electrocatalytic reaction protocol is developed for achieving intramolecular dehydrogenative annulation of N-aryl enamines. It offers a simple and efficient way for the synthesis of indoles in an undivided cell. Good to excellent yields are obtained under oxidantfree and transition-metal-free conditions. Moreover, imidazo[ 1,2-a]-pyridines could also be produced when N-pyridyl enamines were used as the substrates.
