This account examines and discusses the synthetic potential of indium-mediated reactions, which have recently emerged as a useful tool in organic chemistry. This Account will, it is hoped, be a valuable source of inspiration for those with a familiarity in organometallic chemistry, particularly those involved in reactions with elemental metals, and serve as a jumping-off for those wishing to learn about how indium chemistry can be used to solve their specific problems.
