We report here a facile B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 catalyzed trans-aminoboration of internal alkynes, furnishing 3-position borylated indoles at ambient temperature. This reaction proceeds with the breaking of a B-N bond and the formation of N-C and B-C bonds to produce indole and derivatives in one step. It works well for various boron reagents and alkynyl-anilines. The borylated indoles can be further derivatized to give column stable organoboron compounds that can be used for future functionalization.
