Abstract

An electrosynthesis of spiro-indolenines in batch and continuous flow was achieved through dearomative arylation of indoles with good functional group compatibility. User-friendly undivided cells were used under catalyst- and oxidant-free conditions. Moreover, the use of a flow electrolysis cell gave high daily productivity and excellent scale-up potential under less supporting electrolyte and higher substrate concentration conditions.
