The cyclization reactions of 2-(N-propargyl)imidazole-2-yl)indoles (synthesized via the hydroamination reaction between N-propargyl indole-2-carboxamides and propargylamine) have been investigated under Lewis acid- and base-promoted conditions. The polyheterocyclic compounds thus obtained were shown to possess promising photophysical properties.
