Abstract

An efficient regioselective iodination of the Fischer-Borsche ring has been achieved using molecular iodine, in a one-pot synthesis. The acid-, metal-, and oxidant-free conditions of the present method are highly convenient and practical. Furthermore, the one-pot direct iodination process is extended to the concise synthesis of glycozoline, 3-formyl-6-methoxy-carbazole, and 6-methoxy-carbazole-3-methylcarboxylate natural alkaloids. This method has been proven to be tolerant to a broad range of functional groups, with good to excellent yields.
