✦ Synopsis


Abstract

Reported here is the synthesis and characterization of the indenopyrrolocarbazole ring system utilizing a Diels‐Alder reaction with 2‐indenylindole and maleimide. Clemmensen reduction of imide 10 furnished the 5‐oxo (16) and 7‐oxo (17) lactam regioisomers. A new regiospecific route to 5‐oxo 16 was developed using ethyl cis‐β‐cyanoacrylate as the dienophile. The regio and stereochemical characterization of the cycloadducts was confirmed by X‐ray crystallography.
