A rapid entry to C-prenylcarbazoles: total synthesis of clausamine C–D, clausevatine D and clausine F

Abstract

The key prenylcarbazole precursor 33 was readily assembled from diester 30 by an ester-driven para-Claisen rearrangement followed by selective removal of the ester function. Unusual oxidative cyclization of 33 by m-CPBA resulted in the total synthesis of tetracyclic carbazole natural products 3 and 11.
