Synthesis of Glycoborine, Glybomine A and B, the Phytoalexin Carbalexin A and the β-Adrenoreceptor Antagonists Carazolol and Carvedilol.

We describe a regioselective synthesis of 4- or 5-substituted carbazoles by oxidative cyclisation of meta-oxygen-substituted N-phenylanilines. Using the regiodirecting effect of a pivaloyloxy group, we prepared 4-hydroxycarbazole, a precursor for the enantiospecific synthesis of the β-adrenoreceptor antagonists (-)-(S)-carazolol (5) and (-)-(S)-carvedilol (6). Regioselective palladium(II)-catalysed cyclisation of different diarylamines led to total synthesis of glycoborine (7) and the first total syntheses of the phytoalexin carbalexin A (8), glybomine A (9) and glybomine B (10). For glybomine B (10), a 5-hydroxycarbazole was converted into the corresponding triflate and utilized for introduction of a prenyl substituent.
