Abstract

In the course of a program aimed at designing new antitumor agents, we were interested in the synthesis of new substituted benzo and pyrido carbazoles. The synthesis was performed through an efficient four-step sequence from a 2-trimethylstannylindole derivative and via C- 2 (het) arylindoles. The synthetic sequence was developed using two palladium mediated reactions including, at the end of the synthesis, a direct (het) arylannulation, which led to ...
