Anodic oxidation-promoted aromatization of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles was achieved. Nitrogen-protected tetrahydrocarbazoles could be converted to the corresponding carbazoles with the use of bromide as a mediator. LiBr, an inexpensive bromide source, allowed for efficient transformation in the presence of AcOH.
