A Rh(III)-catalyzed site-selective C-H activation of C(3)-functionalized indoles in a coupling with diazo esters has been realized with carbonyl as a weakly coordinating group. The coupling selectivity is dictated by the temperature and additives, affording either C4-alkylated indoles or C2-annulated lactones in moderate to excellent efficiency.
