Indole alkaloids bearing the tetracyclic indoline scaffolds of 1H‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]carbazole have shown fascinating chemical diversity and significant biological activities. The development of efficient synthetic methodologies for such a tetracyclic scaffold remains highly desirable in both synthetic c...
