Irradiation of a tryptamine linked through its side-chain nitrogen to an alkylidene malonate residue results in an intramolecular [2 + 2] cycloaddition to the indole 2,3-double bond. The resultant cyclobutane undergoes spontaneous retro-Mannich fission to produce a spiro[indoline-3,3'-pyrrolenine] with relative configuration defined by the orientation of substituents in the transient cyclobutane. The tandem intramolecular photocycloaddition-retro-Mannich process, abbreviated as TIPCARM, leads to a spiropyrrolidine which is poised to undergo a second retro-Mannich fragmentation that expels the malonate unit and generates transiently an indolenine. The latter undergoes rearrangement to a beta-carboline, which upon brominative oxidation undergoes further rearrangement to an oxindole. With tryptamine as starting material, the entire sequence leads to the alkaloid (+/-)-coerulescine. Starting from 5-methoxytryptamine, a parallel series affords (+/-)-horsfiline. Modification of the malonylidene unit to include an isobutyl substituent at C3 affords a photosubstrate which also undergoes the TIPCARM process. In this case, a 2'-isobutyl-substituted spiro[indoline-3,3'-pyrrolenine] results. This undergoes stereoselective hydride reduction to give a product with relative orientation at the spiro carbon and the new stereocenter bearing the isobutyl appendage corresponding to that of the alkaloid elacomine. From tryptamine, the sequence paralleling that leading to coerulescine and horsfiline terminates at 6-deoxyelacomine, whereas 6-methoxytryptamine is starting material affords (+/-)-elacomine itself.
