Abstract

In the reaction of 4a-methyl-2,3,4,4a-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole and its 6-methyl- and 6-bromosubstituted derivatives with 2-chloroacetamide respectively by 9-carbamoylmethyl-4a-methyl-2,3,4,4a-tetrahydro-1H-carbazolium chlorides are formed, which can be cyclized into 5,6,7,7a-tetrahydro-1H, 4H-imidazo[2,1-k]-carbazol-2(3H)-one derivatives. Reaction of 4a-methyl-2,3,4,4a-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole hydrochloride with acrylamide gives 8a-methyl-1,2,6,7,8,8a-hexahydro-5H-pyrimido[2,1-k]carbazol-3(4H)-one. 7a, 12-Dimethyl-3,4,4a,5,6,7,7a,12-octahydropyrido[3,2-j]carbazol-2(1H)-one was synthesized by the reaction of 4a,9-dimethyl-2,3,4,4a-tetrahydro-9H-carbazole with acrylamide.
