Abstract
A tandem benzannulation-cyclization strategy was successfully applied to the synthesis of a tetracyclic heteroaromatic compound expected to have interesting electronic properties. Benzannulation of a diazo ketone and a ynamide yielded a highly substituted aniline that was cyclized to indole according to protocols developed in our laboratory previously.
