A bioinspired collective synthesis strategy enabled the total syntheses of seven iboga-type indole alkaloids: tabertinggine, ibogamine, ibogaine, ibogaine hydroxyindolenine, 3-oxoibogaine hydroxyindolenine, iboluteine, and ervaoffines D. Tabertinggine and its congeners act as precursors for biomimetic transformations into other iboga-type alkaloids.
