Abstract
Oxidative dimerization of N b-methyltryptamine occurs exclusively via ββ-coupling in a one-step synthesis of rac- and meso-chimonanthine. Transformation of the former to rac-calycanthine completes a synthesis of all the dimeric alkaloids of Calycanthus species. The structure of some minor by-products of this oxidation are discussed.
