The complete carbon skeleton of welwitindolinone A isonitrile has been prepared by using a [2+2] cycloaddition to establish the bicyclo[4.2.0]octane core and a SmI 2 ‐mediated intramolecular reductive cyclization between an enone and an aryl isocyanate to stereoselectively install the spiro‐oxindole (see scheme; DBU=1,8‐diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec‐7‐ene).
