The 7-bromocyclopentaindole 3 has been converted into the hydroxybutenyl derivatives 5 and 6, and the tetrahydrofuranylidene derivative 8 in model studies towards the elaboration of paspalitrem and lolitrem type side chains.In a parallel approach, the cyclopentapyrrole 13 was converted into the fused α-pyrone 16 which acted as a pyrrole-2,3-quinodimethane, and underwent Diels-Alder reaction to give, after loss of carbon dioxide, the cyclopentaindoles 17 - 21.
