A series of nine novel 3-tetrazolylmethyl-azepino[4,5-b]indol-4-ones were prepared in moderate to good overall yields in only two reaction steps. The first step consisted of a one-pot sequential process of an Ugi-azide multicomponent reaction, N-acylation and SN2 to give the xanthates. The second step was an intramolecular cyclization under free radical conditions. Also, their binding modes have been modelled using docking techniques.
