Rapid assembly of the backbone of spirotryprostatin B ( 4 ) was achieved by employing a MgI 2 ‐catalyzed ring‐expansion reaction of spiro[cyclopropane‐1,3′‐oxindole] 1 and alkynyl imine 2 to yield advanced intermediate 3 . Introduction of the prenyl side chain was accomplished by aldehyde olefination through a Julia–Kociensky reaction, a transformation that greatly facilitates late‐stage derivatization for biological studies.
