ChemInform Abstract: One-Pot Graebe-Ullmann Synthesis of γ-Carbolines Under Microwave Irradiation

One-pot efficient and simple synthesis of γ-carboline derivatives by the Graebe-Ullmann method was conducted in a commercial microwave oven in a few minutes at a low energy level and using erlenmeyer as adequate reaction vessels. Yields are similar to those obtained by conventional heating.
