A new procedure for the synthesis of 3-acylcarbazoles useful for the construction of 6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazoles is described starting from readily available gramines, or indoles. This methodology is exemplified by a synthesis of the anticancer alkaloid olivacine. Some discrepancies are noted between our results and those of other authors.
