A high-yielding, copper-catalyzed dearomatization reaction of indole from 2-methylindole-derived oxime acetates was realized, providing access to structurally novel spiro[indoline-3,2′-pyrrolidine] derivatives in 67–98% yields. When the C-2 position of the indole was not substituted, azacarbazole derivatives were obtained in moderate yields. This transformation provides an efficient approach to access nitrogen-containing spiroindolenine and azacarbazole derivatives with wide substrate scope.
