The dehydrogenative coupling of 2‐(acetylamino)‐1,1’‐biphenyls with internal alkynes proceeds regioselectively under rhodium catalysis to afford the corresponding 7‐phenylindole derivatives. Combining with Suzuki‐Miyaura coupling, the processes provide easy access to the 7‐phenylindole structures from readily available starting materials.
