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.

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.
