This way and that way: A formal [4+2] cycloaddition between various cyclobutanones and indoles proceeded efficiently under Lewis acid catalysis (see scheme; PG = protecting group). The regioselectivity of the reaction could be controlled in such a way that each of the two possible regioisomers of a cycloaddition product could be synthesized selectively. The usefulness of this reaction for the total synthesis of hydrocarbazole natural products was demonstrated. Copyright

(+/-) N-Benzyl aspidospermidine is synthesized in seven steps via the trisubstituted hexahydrocarbazolone 4; reductive cyclization of this intermediate which is obtained by photocyclization and Michael reaction with nitroethylene, creates simulteanously b
