The palladium catalyzed carbonylative cross-coupling reaction of indolylborates (2) with vinyl triflates (3) afforded indol-2-yl ketones (4), which were subsequently converted to hexahydroindeno[2,1-b]indoles (5) with the aid of an acid. This protocol was well adapted for the total synthesis of yuehchukene.
