A range of γ-carbolines were produced stereoselectively from ruthenium(III)-catalyzed reactions of 3-pyridyl substituted aryl azides. Other catalysts and conditions were neither as selective nor as high-yielding. This method was used to synthesize dimebolin in a concise and efficient manner.

Approaching all isomers: A range of α-, β- and δ-carbolinium ions are readily available from ortho-substituted aryl azides using a rhodium(II) carboxylate catalyst (see scheme). The carbolinium ions are readily reduced to afford tryptolines or deprotonated to access pyridoindoles. This [RhII2]-catalyzed C-H bond amination was used in the synthesis of (±)-horsfiline and neocryptolepine. esp=α,α,α',α'- tetramethyl-1,3-benzenedipropionate. Copyright
