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.

The synthesis and SAR of a series of substituted 1-aminotetrahydrocarbazoles with potent activity against human papillomaviruses are described. Synthetic approaches allowing for variation of the substitution pattern of the tetrahydrocarbazole are outlined and resulting changes in antiviral activity are highlighted. Several compounds with in vitro antiviral activity (W12 antiviral assay) in the low nanomolar range were identified and (1R)-6-bromo-N-[(1R)-1-phenylethyl]-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole-1-amine was selected for further evaluation.

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.
An easy access to 2-oxohydrazones via electrophilic α-p-tolylhydrazonylation of ketone enolates with tert-butyl p-tolylazo sulfide

The title reaction conveniently furnishes, as the sole or main products, α-(p-tolylhydrazono)ketones or their N-methylderivatives (H+ or MeI quenching of the final mixture, respectively). Although the method fails with ketones having a secondary alkyl group bonded to the carbonyl, yields are otherwise more than satisfactory and particular interest is attached to the hydrazonylation of the methyl group in methyl ketones.
