An efficient cyclization of 1-(indole-2-yl)-2,3-allenols in the presence of platinum(II) chloride leading to polysubstituted carbazoles via 1,2-methyl or an exclusive1,2-aryl migration of the metal-carbene intermediate was observed. The reaction proceeds via the intermediacy of a metal carbene intermediate, which induces the carbon-carbon bond cleavage via 1,2-migration to afford the products.
