Here, we report a short and efficient synthesis of isoindolin-1-ones. Base-induced cyclization of o-hydroxymethyl-benzamides, which was easily prepared from the corresponding phthalides and amines, led predominantly to N-alkylation in good yield. The reaction proceeded under mild conditions and bromine and nitrile substituents were tolerated. The selectivity is explained by HASB theory. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
