3-substituted indoles to pyrido[1,2-a]indoles is developed by using 4-oxo peroxides as π-extending reagents, which are employed as versatile C4 building blocks. This transformation is initiated by Brønsted acid-mediated Hock rearrangement of the peroxyl group. Notably, the pyrido[1,2-a]indole products are obtained by elimination of the indole moiety from the corresponding dihydropyrido[1,2-a]indoles, which

A novel and efficient method for the benzannulation of indoles to carbzaoles is reported gamma-Carbonyl tert butylperoxide is applied as a new diene building block for the pi-extension of simple indoles. The synthetic utility of this method is demonstrated by concise and selective total syntheses of naturally occurring carbazole alkaloids, olivacine, and asteropusazole A.
