Abstract
A synthetic route to the pyridocarbazole alkaloids, olivacine and guatambuine is described. The crucial step in the synthesis utilizes tricarbonylchromium (0) complexes of a suitable dihydropyridine system and illustrates the application of such complexes for the preparation of such alkaloids.
