  • Abstract
    Using atmospheric O2 as the stoichiometric oxidant, Pd2+/Cu2+-catalyzed oxidative cyclization of the corresponding bisindolylmaleimides provides the rebeccamycin aglycone and related indolo[2,3-a]pyrrolo[3,4-c]carbazoles in 58–88% yield. The method is operationally simple and utilizes readily prepared substrates, making the process amenable to scaleup.
