Stabilization through N-acylation allowed the isolation of the labile indole dioxetanes 2, which were transformed by dimethyl sulfide deoxygenation to the corresponding indole epoxides 5; the latter were also independently prepared by dimethyldioxirane oxidation.Key words: Indoles, carbazoles, dimethyldioxirane, singlet oxygen, dioxetanes, epoxides
