Abstract
This study describes the synthesis of the 4-azafluorenone core in a single operation using readily available starting materials. Condensation of an amidrazone with ninhydrin intercepts an intermediate 1,2,4-triazine derivative, which engages norbornadiene in a merged [4 + 2]/bis-retro[4 + 2] sequence to deliver the azafluorenone core. The tricyclic core established in this manner was elaborated to onychine, the simplest natural product in the 4-azafluorenone alkaloid family.
