Depending on the substitution pattern of the aminobutadiene subunit in the selected 3‐vinylindoles 1, 3, 6 , and 9 , stereospecific [4 + 2] cycloadditions (‘ endo ’‐preference) and dimerizations take place on reaction with N ‐phenylmaleimide. In the reaction of 9 with N ‐phenylmaleimide in the absence of a Lewis ‐acid catalyst, a competing ene reaction occurs in addition to the Diels ‐ Alder reaction.
