Using the palladium(II)-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of a diarylamine and the annulation of a dimethylpyran ring by Lewis acid promoted reaction with prenal as key steps, the total syntheses of the 6-oxygenated pyrano[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloids koenine and koenimbine, and of the 6,7-dioxygenated pyrano[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloids koenigine and koenigicine (koenimbidine, koenidine) were achieved. Moreover, these studies led to an improved synthetic route to the 2,6-dioxygenated carbazole alkaloid glycozolidol. Mukonicine, originally published as 6,8-dimethoxypyrano[3,2-a]carbazole, was found to be identical with koenigicine.

The palladium(0)-catalyzed C-N bond formation and palladium(II)-catalyzed oxidative cyclization provide an efficient route to a series of 2,6-dioxygenated carbazole alkaloids including the first total synthesis of the phytoalexin carbalexin C.
