Although 3-azoindoles have recently emerged as an appealing family of photoswitch molecules, the synthesis of such compounds has been poorly covered in the literature. Herein a high-yielding and operationally simple protocol is reported allowing the synthesis of 3-azoindoles, featuring important steric hindrance around the azo motif. Remarkably, this C–H coupling is characterized by excellent atom economy and occurs under metal-free conditions, at room temperature, and within few minutes, delivering the expected products in excellent yields (quantitatively in most of the cases). Accordingly, a library of new molecules, with potential applications as photochromic compounds, is prepared.

A highly efficient and regioselective self-coupling of C8-methylol catechin derivatives is developed for the synthesis of dimeric flavanol analogues under metal-free and mild conditions. Its applicability is showcased by the efficient synthesis of bisflavanol-type natural products bis-8,8′-catechinylmethane, bis-8,8′-epicatechinylmethane, talienbisflavan A, and oolonghomobisflavan A. The novel self-coupling mechanism sheds new light on the classical Friedel–Crafts alkylation mechanism in acid-catalyzed catechin–formaldehyde condensation.
