First example of regiospecific intermolecular C–H insertion reactions of cyclic rhodium carbenoids: novel synthesis of 3-indol-3′-yloxindoles

Abstract
Facile regiospecific intermolecular C–H insertion reactions of cyclic rhodium carbenoids have been achieved using diazo carbonyl compounds 1 and indole or N-substituted indoles to afford 1,3-dihydro-1′H-[3,3′]biindolyl-2-ones, 3a–o in an excellent yield.
