Abstract

The surfactant‐type Brønsted acid‐catalyzed multi‐component cascade reaction of ortho‐formylarylketones with indoles was investigated in an aqueous medium for the synthesis of indolyl benzo[b]carbazoles. The reaction was carried out in the presence of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, which was initiated by two consecutive nucleophilic additions of indoles to the aldehyde group of ortho‐formylarylketones, followed by a Friedel–Crafts‐type cyclization and dehydrative aromatization. This protocol afforded the desired products in good yields under mild conditions and demonstrated a broad substrate scope. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
