A metal-free, simultaneous triple C-C coupling cyclization reaction between phenacyl bromides and indoles is discovered in a highly regioselective fashion to furnish 3,5-diarylcarbazoles. DMAP is utilized as the only reagent for the unusual and rapid cyclization reaction to furnish all new carbazole compounds through installation of a great diversity of substituents. A plausible radical mechanism for the new reaction is predicted by conducting various control experiments, competitive reactions, furoindole formation, and ESI-MS analyses of the ongoing cyclization reaction.

An efficient indole-to-carbazole strategy has been developed under metal-free conditions. This carbazole formation was highly promoted by NH4I with high regioselectivity through formal [2 + 2 + 2] annulation of indoles, ketones, and nitroolefins. It thus conveniently enabled the assembly of a large number of diversified carbazole products with good tolerance of a broad range of functional groups.

A simple and efficient one-pot protocol for the synthesis of NH-carbazoles has been described. The strategy comprises a one-pot reaction involving the treatment of 2-alkynyl indoles with arylacetylenes in the presence of an Au-Ag combination catalyst. The salient feature of the strategy involves sequential activation of terminal and internal alkynes leading to the cascade hydroarylation of terminal alkynes and 6-endo-dig carbocyclization reactions. The generality of the method has been demonstrated by using a series of 2-alkynyl indoles and arylacetylenes.
