Abstract: Pyrido[3,2,1-jk]carbazol-6-one in its partial hydrogenated form is part of the heterocyclic skeleton of many natural products (e. g. strychnos alkaloids such as strychninolones and brucinolones, picrasidin Q and olivacin alkaloids). It possesses the biological interesting combination of an indole structure and of a 2-quinolone; Comparison with strychnos alkaloids shows that it has already four rings and two oxygen functions in the correct position.
