. The fluorous intermediates in the multistep synthesis
were finally purified by F-SPE. This protocol was used to make symmetrical and
nonsymmetrical bis-indolyl-substituted heterocyclic scaffolds by double cross-
coupling reactions of indolylborons with a variety of dihalo central rings.
As the fluorous sulfonyl linker has no acidic protons to eliminate “HF”, it is
stable under lithiation conditions. Kondo and coworkers applied this strategy in the
synthesis of yuehchukene, a dimeric indole alkaloid natural product that possesses
antifertility and estrogenic activities [23]. Fluorous sulfonyl linker attached indole
