摘要: Abstract A synthesis of the natural product 5-methyl-6H-pyrido[4,3-b]carbazole-11-methanol, 5 from ketolactam 7 is described. Compound was treated with one equivalent MeLi followed by quenching reaction mixture water to give lactone 19 a number organolithium reagents such as methyllithium. n-butyllithium, ethoxyvinyl lithium and lithio derivative formaldehyde diethyl mercaptal give, after sodium borohydride reduction, 1, 15, 30, 31 respectively. Compounds 30 were hydrolyzed then reduced compounds 6 respectively, in an overall yield 21%. 16 22 identified intermediates Saulnier-Gribble ellipticine.
