The facile procedure for the synthesis of the 11H-pyrido[3,2-a]carbazole structure involving the Fischer indole cyclization on tetrahydroquinolinones, available from enaminones and methyl 2-formyl-3-oxopropanoate, followed by the aromatization of the resulting 5,6-dihydro derivatives is described. This method allows for the introduction of substituents at C2, C6, and C8 to the scaffold by choice of the starting materials. In the biological testing, introduction of the phenyl group at C6 is significantly effective to improve the antiproliferative activity.
