The authors postulated the ionic intermediate i, which seems more prone to cyclization to ii (ngouniensine skeleton) or to the anilinoacrylic ester iii than to reversal to the akuammicine skeleton. Most probably the reaction proceeds through the thermally produced nonionic intermediate iv. Chemical equation presented.
