Methods for the synthesis and transformation of 3-acyl-2-haloindoles, which are polyfunctional reagents used for preparing various indole derivatives, are summarized. The reduction and oxidation of the acyl group, condensation at the carbonyl group, nucleophilic and radical substitution of the halogen atom are considered. Reactions leading to [b]-fused indoles are discussed separately.
