We report our efforts to apply an N-iodosuccinimide-mediated dearomative oxidative coupling of indoles and phenols to benzofuroindoline-containing polycyclic scaffolds related to the natural product bipleiophylline. Suitable conditions from N-substituted indoles are developed and applied to the synthesis of a hexacyclic model starting from a tetracyclic ABCE precursor.
