Gattermann reaction on substituted 1-hydroxycarbazoles (4a-d) afforded substituted 1-hydroxycarbazole-2-carbaldehydes (5a-d) from which synthesis of either 2-hydroxypyrido[2,3-a]carbazoles (7a-d) via Perkin reaction or 2- hydroxypyrimido[4,5-a]carbazoles (8a-d) via condensation with urea could be achieved.

Effective preparation of olivacine and ellipticine via late-stage D-ring cyclization is described. Key features of the synthetic routes include trifluoroacetic acid-mediated formation of a lactone that is fused to a tetrahydrocarbazole derivative and its one-pot two-step ring opening and aromatization mediated by para-toluenesulfonic acid and palladium on carbon, respectively.

One-pot oxidations of substituted 1-keto-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles (1) to carbazole-1,4-quinones (2) are efficiently carried out by CAN-SiO 2-mediated reaction. This generalized protocol was successfully extended to the synthesis of two naturally occurring carbazoloquinones: murrayaquinone A (2b) and koeniginequinone A (2g). A plausible mechanism for this novel reaction involves formation of a 9-hydroxy-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H- carbazole-1-one followed by rearrangement to 1-hydroxycarbazole derivatives, which are further oxidized by cerium (IV) to carbazoloquinones.
