This review focuses on the utilization of indium (III) as π-acid for the activation of C–C
unsaturated bonds in organic synthesis. In addition to its well-known σ-coordination with …

This review deals with the recent applications of the indium trichloride (InCl3) catalyst in the
synthesis of a broad spectrum of heterocyclic compounds. Over the years, a number of …

Indium compounds are commonly considered weaker Lewis acids than their gallium
counterparts. We explore the difference in Lewis acidity of the cationic dialkylgallium [GaR2 …

Indium (III) halides catalyze the hydroalkoxylation reaction of ortho-alkynylphenols to afford
benzo [b] furans in good yields. The reaction proceeds with 5-endo-dig regioselectivity with …

Catalysts, especially heterogeneous catalysts, play an essential role in organic
transformation reactions. Hence, we use a composite of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and …

The cascade difunctionalization of α, β-unsaturated carbonyls by nucleophilic halogenation
followed by enolate trapping with other electrophiles is highly challenging in synthetic …

The indium (III)-catalyzed cascade cycloisomerization reaction of 1, 5-enynes with pendant
aryl nucleophiles is reported. The reaction proceeds in cascade under mild reaction …

Organogallium and‐indium compounds are useful reagents in organic synthesis because of
their moderate stability, efficient reactivity and high chemoselectivity. Carbogallation and …

In the rising field of organoindium chemistry little is known about the perfluoroorganyl‐
substituted indium compounds. The increasing use of indium reagents is explained by their …

Donor–acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) react with lithium alkynylselenolates in the presence
of In (OTf) 3 to furnish tetrahydroselenophenes with exocyclic double bonds. The reaction …
