in the present study, the synthesis of diethylene triamine supported on cellulose biopolymer as a biodegradable solid basic heterogeneous catalyst was suggested. then, the applicability of the synthesized catalyst cellulose bonded n-propyl diethylene triamine (cbpdeta) was tested for the synthesis of oxindole derivatives, an important class of potentially bioactive compounds. a various series o...

The paper presents an application of the asymmetry approach to spirooxindoles via Brevicolline, Cinchonidine or Cinchonine catalyzed one-pot multicomponent synthesis. Brevicolline, in comparison with Cinchonidine or Cinchonine, catalyzes the reaction of isatins, acetylacetone/ethyl 3-oxobutanoate and malononitrile, with the formation of spiro[oxindole-3,4'-4'H-pirane] derivatives in an opticall...

Wells–Dawson tungsten heteropolyacid (H6P2W18O62) has been applied as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for one-pot synthesis of spiro[4H-pyran-3,3’-oxindoles] via reaction of various isatins, malonitrile and 1,3-dicarbonyl compound in water. The corresponding products were obtained in high yields. The catalysts were easily recycled and reused without loss of their catalytic activity.
