A unified protocol for the construction of 6 H ‐benzofuro[2,3‐ b ]indoles and 5,6‐dihydroindolo[2,3‐ b ]indoles via UV light‐mediated diradical cyclization was developed and preliminary efforts were also made to functionalize at C10b position of 6 H ‐benzofuro[2,3‐ b ]indoles. This mild and facile strategy may have great potential in the syntheses of natural products and functional materials.
