Abstract
The results of research into the chemistry of 7-azaindole during the last twenty years are presented. New synthetic methods for the 7-azaindole structures are developed including palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions. Reactivity of 3-formyl-, 3-halogeno- and 2-lithio-7-azaindole derivatives is reported. Functionalisation of the pyridine ring via the N-oxide is also described. In the last part, biological activity of various 7-azaindole derivatives is briefly indicated.
Keywords: Azaindoles, palladium-catalysed, cross-coupling reactions, Kirkpatrickia varialosa, pyrrolo annelation, heteroatomic rings, butylcarbonylaminopyridine, photo-Graebe-Ullmann, intramolecular cyclisation, iminophosphorane moiety., functionalised aldehyde, iodomethame, monobrominated

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
Electrochemical C-X bond formation
Conventional methods for carrying out carbon–X bond formation are typically conducted at harsh reaction conditions, and rely on expensive catalysts as well as the use of stoichiometric, and perhaps toxic, oxidants. In this regard, electrochemical synthesis has recently been recognized as a sustainable and scalable strategy for the construction of ...read more
