Transition metal complexes in organic synthesis, Part 35. First total synthesis of furostifoline

The first total synthesis of the furo[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloid furostifoline was achieved using a convergent iron-mediated construction of the carbazole nucleus.

Transition metal complexes in organic synthesis, part 63;1 convergent iron-mediated syntheses of the furo[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloid furostifoline

Two highly efficient routes to the furo[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloid furostifoline are described. Both syntheses use the iron-mediated arylamine cyclization as the key-step and lead to the natural product in seven and five steps, respectively.
