Synthesis of a series of tetrahydrocarbazole amides with potent activity against human papillomaviruses is described. Synthetic approaches allowing for variation of the substitution pattern of the tetrahydrocarbazole and the amide are outlined and resulting changes in antiviral activity and certain developability parameters are highlighted. Several compounds with in vitro antiviral activity (W12 antiviral assay) in the single digit nanomolar range were identified and N-[(1R)-6-chloro-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazol-1-yl]-2-pyridinecarboxamide was selected for further evaluation.

Herein, we report the synthesis of new compounds with demonstrated anticancer properties based on the 2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole scaffold. The Fischer indolization method was used to close the heterocyclic motif. The synthesis method's scope and limitations were thoroughly assessed through a series of experiments.

9-Meth-oxy-3,4,5,6-tetra-hydro-1-benzo[]azonine-2,7-dione, CHNO, (I), and 6-meth-oxy-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydro-car-ba-zole, CHNO, (II), represent the structures of a benzoazonine that contains a nine-membered ring and its parent tetra-hydro-car-ba-zole. The mol-ecules of (I) pack together strong amide N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding and weak C-H⋯O inter-actions, whereas the parent tetra-hydro-car-ba-zole (II) packs with C/N-H⋯π inter-actions, as visualized by Hirshfeld surface characterization.

Herein we report the structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies and optimization of new highly potent and selective CRTH2 receptor antagonists as potential follow-ups of our previous reported clinical candidate setipiprant (ACT-129968) for the treatment of respiratory diseases. Structural modification of the amide part of setipiprant (ACT-129968) led to the identification of the tetrahydrocarbazole derivative (S)-B-1 (ACT-453859) ((S)-2-(3-((5-chloropyrimidin-2-yl)(methyl)amino)-6-fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-9H-carbazol-9-yl)acetic acid). This compound which displayed a substantial improvement in potency in the presence of plasma versus setipiprant (ACT-129968) has exhibited an excellent overall pharmacokinetic profile.

An efficient five steps, the protection-deprotection synthetic a novel synthetic routes to(±) noruleine (±)-uleine, are reported starting from tetrahydrocarbazole fused monoalkyl nitrile at C-2 position that is prepared on multigram scale from 2-(3-ethyl-1-oxo-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazol-2-yl)acetonitrile (1) as well as the key azocino[4,3]indole skeleton is constructed via the tetrafluoro-1,4-benzoquinone (TFB)-mediated cyclization of a tetrahydrocarbazole derivative possessing direct amide synthesis from nitrile. As a result, Total synthesis of noruleine and uleine has been developed, which is accomplished in 4 and 5- steps synthesis of the ABCD tetracyclic of the strychnos alkaloids with an overall yield of 44% and 39%, respectively. The DFT computations were performed with B3LYP/6-311g(d,p) level to determine inter and intramolecular interactions and reactivity features of the compound .

The radical cascade reaction is considered as one of the most powerful methods to build molecular complexity. However, highly stereoselective intermolecular radical cascade reactions that can produce complex cyclic compounds bearing multiple stereocenters via visible-light-induced photocatalysis have been challenging yet desirable. Herein we report a facile and efficient synthesis of multi-substituted trans-fused hexahydrocarbazoles via a stereoselective intermolecular radical cascade reaction of readily available tryptophans and acrylamides enabled by visible-light-induced photoredox catalysis.
