Abstract

The reaction of the 1,2-diaryl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindoles, and 3-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole with tetracyanoethylene occurred at the 5 position of the tetrahydroindole ring. A Fischer rearrangement of the phenylhydrazones of these 4-oxotetrahydroindoles gave pyrrolo [2,3-c]carbazoles.
