An alkylation/olefination cascade of indolecarboxaldehydes and phosphonate-functionalized donor–acceptor cyclopropanes affords functionalized dihydrocarbazoles and cyclohepta[cd]indoles in formal (3 + 3) and (4 + 3) cycloadditions. A minor modification to the reaction conditions also allows access to the fully aromatic heterocyclic scaffolds by thermal loss of an electron-rich aryl moiety.
