A Simple Route to N- -Chloroalkylisatins

N- -Chloroalkylisatins 17–20; General Procedure
the residue was neutralized with 10% aq NaHCO3. The products
were extracted with CHCl3 (3 100 mL) and dried (MgSO4). After
removal of solvent, the isatins were purified by chromatography on
silica gel, eluting with variable amounts of hexane–EtOAc
(Table 3).
Oxalyl chloride (1.75 mL, 2.55 g, 20 mmol) was added dropwise to
a solution of DABCO (11 mmol) in the appropriate solvent (10 mL)
(see Table 1) cooled in an ice-bath under N2 to form a pale yellow
solid salt. To this salt was added slowly with ice-bath cooling, the
para-substituted N-phenylheterocycle 10 (10 mmol) in the same
solvent (50 mL) and the mixture was stirred for the period of time
and at the temperature shown in Table 1. After removal of solvent,
