โฆ Synopsis
The N-phenylsulfonyl derivative (2) of the previously unknown fused heterocycle 4Hfuro[3,4-blindole is synthesized from indole-3-carboxaldehyde (2) in 28% yield and undergoes a Diels-Alder reaction with benzyne to give 5H-benzo[b]carbazole (11) in -33% yield after deoxygenation and deprotection.

The indole and pyrrolidine ring systems of the title compound, C 23 H 20 N 2 O 2 S, are essentially coplanar. The angle between the planes of the phenylsulfonyl group and the indole ring system is 77.0 (1) . The benzyl ring and the pyrroloindole plane are nearly perpendicular, with an angle between
The indole and pyrrolidine ring systems of the title compound, C 24 H 22 N 2 O 3 S, are essentially coplanar. The angle between the planes of the phenylsulfonyl group and the indole ring system is 89.1 (2) , which is characteristic of 1-(phenylsulfonyl)indoles. The benzyl ring is nearly perpendicula
