We have developed a Zincke-aldehyde-based approach to the complex alkaloid gelsemine. It features a key thermal pericyclic cascade that converts a Zincke aldehyde bearing a pendant alkene into a hydroiso-indolone product that shares many structural features with the target molecule. Our efforts to convert these intermediates to gelsemine are also discussed. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
