Two intermediates 9b and 9c already used by Cook and Magnus in their syntheses of indole alkaloids were obtained from the title compound 1 through a Fischer indolization procedure. Related tetracyclic intermediates 6 and 8 were also prepared: 6 having substituents at position 2 or 4 were directly obtained, while 8 with substituents at position 1 or 3 were selectively obtained through a convenient protection-deprotection scheme
