Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Be economic with your atoms!</bold> An efficient Rh‐catalyzed oxidative olefination of indoles and pyrroles with broad substrate scope and tolerance is reported (see scheme). The catalytic reaction proceeds with excellent regio‐ and stereoselectivity. The directing group <italic>N</italic>, <italic>N</italic>‐dimethylcarbamoyl was crucial for the reaction and could be removed easily.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg36r4bt4n" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
