An efficient one-pot three-component procedure for the synthesis of new chiral spiro oxindolopyrrolidines/pyrrolizidines with highly regio- and diastereo-enantio, selective from 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides and chiral menthol-drived trans-cinnamic are described. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed on basis of the assignment of the absolute configuration of one of the cy...

A highly enantioselective organocatalytic vinylogous aldol-cyclization cascade reaction of 3-alkylidene oxindoles to isatins has been achieved by using bifunctional organocatalysts. The unexpected intramolecular lactonization which follows the initial aldol reaction, leading to the cleavage of the oxindole ring and generation of enantioenriched spirooxindole dihydropyranones in good to excellen...

The privileged spiro[pyrrolidin-3,3'-oxindole] derivatives exhibit important biological activities. An enantioselective organocatalytic approach to the rapid synthesis of spiro[pyrrolidin-3,3'-oxindole] derivatives with high enantiopurity and structural diversity is described. The asymmetric catalytic three-component 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a broad range of methyleneindolinones with aldehy...

Abstract One-pot two sequential [3 + 2] cycloadditions of azomethine ylides with different dipolarophiles for diastereoselective synthesis spirooxindole pyrrolizidines are introduced. This one-pot involving five components generates a highly condensed ring system bearing seven stereocenters diastereoselectively. The new method has high pot, atom, and step economy. Only equivalents water release...

This article presents the synthesis of new derivatives of spirooxindole-spiropiperidinone- pyrrolidines 6a-j and spirooxindole-spiropiperidinone-pyrrolizines 8a-j, through a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethineylides generated from isatin, sarcosine, and l-proline, through a decarboxylative route with dipolarophile 4a-j. All of the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for thei...

The asymmetric Neber reaction of 3-O-sulfonyl ketoxime, in situ generated from isatin ketoxime and sulfonyl chloride, for the synthesis of chiral spirocyclic oxindole compounds is reported. With the developed protocol, a range of chiral spirooxindole 2H-azirines could be obtained in good to excellent yields and up to a 92 : 8 enantiomeric ratio by using (DHQD)2PHAL as the catalyst. This methodo...
