An alkyne moiety is activated efficiently with a [W(CO) 6 ] or [ReBr(CO) 5 ] catalyst in the presence of an amine functionality in the title reaction of N ‐(2‐alkynylphenyl)amines. The resulting ammonium ylides undergo rearrangement to form a variety of N‐fused polycyclic indole derivatives (see scheme; n =1,2; R=alkyl, Ph).
