Novel and efficient radical alkylation of several heterocyclic systems including pyrroles, indoles, furan and thiophenes is described using xanthate based radical chemistry. The present methodology could be used to provide rapid access to various nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs.

Efficient radical cyclization of alkyl iodides to various aromatic systems including pyrrole, indole, isoquinolone, pyridone, and benzene, mediated by dicumyl peroxide, is described. The methodology was used to provide access to 5,6,8,9,10,11-hexahydroindolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline derivatives.
