A synthetic strategy for the synthesis of chiral tetrahydrocarbazoles (THCAs) has been developed. The strategy relies on two types of 6-exo-trig cyclization of 3-substituted indole substrates. Enantioselective domino Friedel–Crafts-type reactions leading to THCAs can be catalyzed by chiral phosphoric acid derivatives (with up to >99% ee), and the first examples of exocyclic Pictet–Spengler reactions to form THCAs are reported.
