Abstract
Pyrido[3,2,1‐jk]carbazoles 1, synthesized from carbazoles and alkyl‐ or arylmalonates, gave regioselective electrophilic substitution reactions at position 5 such as chlorination to 5‐chloro derivatives 2, nitration to 5‐nitro compounds 3, or hydroxylation to 5‐hydroxy derivatives 4. 5‐Hydroxy compounds 4 gave on treatment with strong bases ring contraction to 5, 6 or the ring opening product 7. Exchange of the chloro group in 2 with azide or amines gave the corresponding azides 8 and the 5‐amino derivatives 9 and 10. Alkylation of 1 with benzyl chloride or allyl bromide resulted in the formation of 5‐C‐alkylated products 11 together with 4‐alkyloxy derivatives 12. J. Heterocyclic Chem., 48, 1039 (2011).

4-Hydroxy-5-phenylpyrido[3,2,1-jk]carbazol-6-ones (4, 5), which were obtained from carbazoles 1 and malonates 2 or 3, were converted to reactive intermediates such as 4-chlorides 9 or 4-tosylates 10, which gave in turn 4-azido-5-phenyl derivatives 11. 5-Alkyl-4-azides 11 were not obtained in this ma
