Syntheses of 5H-benzo[b]carbazole-6,11-diones and indolo[1,2-b]isoquinoline-6,11-diones are described. Both compounds are synthesized from 2-[3-(2-nitrophenyl)-2-oxopropyl]benzaldehydes, which were obtained from commercially available indan-1-ones in six steps.
We developed a redox-neutral synthesis of isoindoloindolone via intramolecular arylation of 2-(1H-indole-1-carbonyl)benzoic acids. This protocol facilitates the formation of various substituted isoindoloindolones in yields ranging from 17% to 80%. Our mechanistic investigations indicate the pivotal role of NaI: the iodide anion promotes the formation of the desired isoindoloindolone, and the sodium

A general and efficient synthesis of the 6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazole ring system is described, in which the key steps are (1) regioselective acylation of a 2-lithio-1-(phenylsulfonyl)indole (14) with 3,4-pyridinedicarboxylic acid anhydride (10), (2) cyclization of the deprotected keto acid 17 to keto lactam 19 with acetic anhydride, and (3) the addition of methyllithium to give, after reduction of the intermediate diol 23 with sodium borohydride, the target ring system. In this fashion, ellipticine (1a), 9-methoxyellipticine (1b), and 9-hydroxyellipticine (1c) were synthesized in excellent overall yields from indole. The use of Superhydride, in place of 1 equiv of methyllithium, provided a synthesis of olivacine (2), and the use of phthalic anhydride in the sequence allowed for the preparation of 6,11-dimethylbenzo[b]carbazole (48). The overall yields of ellipticine (1a) (54%) and 9-methoxyellipticine (1b) (47%) in six steps from their respective indoles represent one of the most efficient syntheses of these antitumor alkaloids.
Synthesis of Indolo[1,2-b]isoquinolinediones; Reduction of 2-[(Substituted Phenyl)methylidene]-3-oxo-2,3-dihydroindole
Indolo[1,2-b]isoquinoline-5,12-dione and the isomeric 6,12-dione have been prepared respectively from 1-sulfonylindole and 1-acetyl-2-[(2-methoxycarbonyl phenyl)methylidene]-3-oxo-2,3-dihydroindole; the reduction of 1-acetyl-2-[(substituted phenyl)methylidene]-3-oxo-2,3-dihydroindole and their oxygen analogs with sodium borohydride have been studied.

The divergent synthesis of calothrixins and ellipticines has been accomplished by utilising the one-pot formation of o-diacylarenes as a key intermediate through rearrangement of o-hydroxy ketone monoacyl hydrazones by lead tetraacetate mediated oxidation.
