Best results are obtained in the presence <strong>of</strong> Pd(OAc) 2 <strong>and</strong> 2-[di(1-adamantyl)phosphanyl]-1-phenylpyrrole as lig<strong>and</strong>. Subsequent sulfonylation gave novel indole deriva- Introduction Among the known <strong>biologically</strong> <strong>active</strong> amines, especially <strong>indoles</strong> continue to attract significant synthetic <strong>and</strong> medicinal interest. [1] A variety <strong>of</strong> substituted <strong>indoles</strong> bind selectively to different receptors with high affinity <strong>and</strong> have been referred as “privileged pharmacological structures”. Thus, it is not surprising that <strong>indoles</strong> have become an important component in many <strong>of</strong> today’s pharmaceuticals. [2] 5-Hydroxytryptamine 6 (5-HT 6) receptors are an essential subtype <strong>of</strong> the identified serotonin receptors 5-HT 1–7. [3] Their selective attraction for a wide range <strong>of</strong> drugs used in central nervous system related diseases (e.g. Alzheimer’s disease, anxiety, <strong>and</strong> schizophrenia) has stimulated significant recent work in this field. [4] In addition, 5-HT 6 receptor lig<strong>and</strong>s are known to facilitate the reduction <strong>of</strong> food intake, fat absorption <strong>and</strong> body weight in genetic <strong>and</strong> dietary models <strong>of</strong> obesity. Interestingly, the 5-HT 6 receptor has no known functional splice variants <strong>and</strong> it appears to be expressed almost exclusively in the central nervous system (CNS). [5] Since the discovery <strong>of</strong> selective lig<strong>and</strong>s for 5-HT 6 receptors by high-throughput-screening in 1998, several medicinal-chemistry-driven approaches have delivered novel lead structures. Among the <strong>active</strong> compounds the majority are indole derivatives, especially with tryptamine scaffold (Figure 1). [6] For some time we have been interested in the improvement <strong>and</strong> exploration <strong>of</strong> methodologies for the <strong>synthesis</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>functionalization</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>indoles</strong>. [7,8] For example, we developed a one-pot <strong>synthesis</strong> <strong>of</strong> tryptamines <strong>and</strong> trypto- [a] Leibniz-Institut für Katalyse e.V. an der Universität Rostock, Albert-Einstein-Str. 29a, 18059 Rostock, Germany Fax: +49-381-1281-51113 E-mail: matthias.beller@catalysis.de [b] ESTEVE, Av.

[9] Based on this work, more recently we studied the <strong>catalytic</strong> hydrohydrazination <strong>of</strong> propargyl alcohol derivatives to give 3-silyloxy-2-methyl<strong>indoles</strong> (Scheme 1).

In continuation <strong>of</strong> these studies, we report here the <strong>synthesis</strong> <strong>of</strong> novel 3-[2-(diethylamino)ethoxy]-2-methyl<strong>indoles</strong>, [11] their palladium-catalyzed amination <strong>and</strong> subsequent sulfonylation <strong>of</strong> the corresponding coupled <strong>indoles</strong>.
