Various 2-(6-substituted 3(Z)-hexen-1,5-diynyl)anilines 1a-g were treated with potassium tert-butoxide or potassium 3-ethylpentanoxide in NMP at 60°C for 2 h to give the corresponding 5-substituted carbazoles 2a-g in 36-65% yields together with indoles 9a-g in 21-40% yields, respectively. Exposing the trifluoroacetamide analogues 10h-k under the same reaction conditions gave the carbazoles 2b-e in 37-57% yields and indoles 9b-e in 15-27% yields. Subsequent cyclizations of acetamide analogues 10a-g gave carbazoles 2a-g in 53-86% yields.
