Naturally occurring carbazole alkaloids including 2-hydroxy-3-methylcarbazole, pyrano[3,2-a]carbazole alkaloids (girinimbine and murrayacine) and prenylcarbazole alkaloids (mukoenine-A and heptaphylline) have been synthesized on gram scale. The key compound in these syntheses is 9-benzyl-2-methoxy-3-methylcarbazole, which was prepared by an efficient Au-catalyzed cyclization reaction of readily available methoxypropadiene and indole-2-carbaldehyde. Girinimbine and murrayacine were synthesized by a concise PhB(OH)2-mediated intermolecular cyclization with 3-methylbut-2-enal. Palladium-catalyzed allylation/Claisen rearrangement proved to be the best route to mukoenine-A and heptaphylline.
