Abstract

Abstract A new synthesis of the natural carbazoles Murrayanine (1) and Murrayafoline A (3) is described. The key step in the synthetic route involved the regioselective cycloaddition of the diene 4, 5-dimethylene-3-phenyl-1, 3-oxazolidin-2-one (4) to acrolein (6) catalyzed by Lewis acids at low temperature. Direct aromatization of the substituted cyclohexene moiety of adduct 7, and further hydrolysis of the 2-oxazolidinone ring, proved to be a more ...
