The reaction of benzyl 3-formylpiperidine-1-carboxylate and aryl hydrazines under standard Fisher Indole conditions followed by reductive work-up affords azepino[3,4b]indoles in moderate to good yields. The products are proposed to be derived via a Plancher rearrangement [(a) Plancher, G. Gazz. Chim. Ital. 1898, 28, II, 374; (b) Plancher, G. Atti. Accad. Lincei 1900, 9, 5, 115; (c) Boyd-Barrett, H.
