Bisindolyl alkaloids represent a large family of natural and synthetic products that display various biological activities. Among the bisindole compounds, 6,7,12,13-tetrahydro-5H-cyclohepta[2,1-b:3,4-b’]diindoles have received little attention. Only two methods have been developed for the construction of the 6,7,12,13-tetrahydro-5H-cyclohepta[2,1-b:3,4-b’]diindole scaffold thus far, including the classical Fischer indole synthesis conducted by reacting indole-fused cycloheptanone and hydrazines, and the condensation reaction to build the seven-membered ring. Here, we report for the first time a new route to synthesize 6,7,12,13-tetrahydro-5H-cyclohepta[2,1-b:3,4-b’]diindoles through intramolecular oxidative coupling of 1,3-di(1H-indol-3-yl)propanes in the presence of PIFA, DDQ and TMSCl with moderate to excellent yields.

The reaction of α,ω-dihalides with the dianion of methyl acetoacetate gives a mixture of mono- and bisalkylated products. The monoalkylated products can be cyclized via the monoanion to cyclic β-keto esters with a seven- or eight-membered ring. Alternatively these monoalkylated products can be cyclized via the dianion to γ-cyclopentyl- or γ-cyclohexyl-β-keto esters.
