Asymmetric organocatalytic α-amination of 2-oxindoles with bis(2,2,2-trichloroethyl)azo-dicarboxylate

An enantioselective electrophilic amination of 3-substituted-2-oxindoles is reported, using bis(2,2,2-trichloroethyl)azo-dicarboxylate and commercially available Cinchona alkaloid organocatalysts. The best results were obtained in the reaction of 3-aryl s

Electrochemical Umpolung C-H Functionalization of Oxindoles

Herein, we present a general electrochemical method to access unsymmetrical 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles by direct C-H functionalization where the oxindole fragment behaves as an electrophile. This Umpolung approach does not rely on stoichiometric oxidants and proceeds under mild, environmentally benign conditions. Importantly, it enables the functionalization of these scaffolds through C-O, and by extension to C-C or even C-N bond formation.

Organocatalytic stereoselective conjugate addition of 3-substituted oxindoles with in situ generated ortho-quinone methides

A novel method for the stereoselective conjugate addition of 3-substituted oxindoles to in situ generated o-QMs was described. This process was catalyzed efficiently by a cinchonidine-derived squaramide catalyst in oil-water phase, furnishing the corresponding 3,3-disubsituted oxindole derivatives in moderate to high yields (up to 98%) with high stereoselectivities (up to 95% ee, 15.4:1 dr). The utility of this reaction was also investigated by the gram-scale synthesis and derivatization of one of the products.

Bifunctional tertiary amine-squaramide catalyzed asymmetric catalytic 1,6-conjugate addition/aromatization of para-quinone methides with oxindoles

The asymmetric catalytic 1,6-addition of p-QMs with racemic oxindoles under the bifunctional catalysis of C2-symmetric dimeric Cinchona-derived squaramide is described. This tertiary amine-squaramide catalyzed reaction provides a diastereoselective and enantioselective approach to the effective assembly of diverse diarylmethine-substituted oxindoles having vicinal tertiary and quaternary stereocenters.

In situ generation of electrophilic trifluoromethylthio reagents for enantioselective trifluoromethylthiolation of oxindoles

An organocatalytic asymmetric trifluoromethylthiolation reaction via in situ generation of active electrophilic trifluoromethylthio species involving trichloroisocyanuric acid and AgSCF3 as a practical and easily handled electrophilic SCF3 source for CSP 3-SCF3 bond formation was developed. Reactions with this one-pot version strategy occurred in good yields and excellent stereoselectivities to access enantiopure oxindoles bearing a SCF 3-substituted quaternary chiral center. The straightforward process described here makes use of simple starting materials and proceeds under mild conditions, which will be useful in medicinal chemistry and diversity-oriented syntheses.

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation of 3-aryloxindoles with allylidene dipivalate: A useful enol pivalate product

Triple A: The catalytic asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA) of 3-aryloxindoles with allylidene dipivalate is described. This reaction affords stable, synthetically useful enol pivalates in high yield and with excellent regio- and enantioselectivity. A broad range of substrates is tolerated, including unprotected and 3-heteroaryl nucleophiles. Copyright

N-heterocyclic carbene-palladium(II)-1-methylimidazole complex catalyzed α-arylation of oxindoles with aryl chlorides and aerobic oxidation of the products in a one-pot procedure

NHC-Pd(II)-Im complex 1 was found to be an effective catalyst for the α-arylation of unprotected oxindoles with aryl chlorides to give products 4 in 44-98% yields under a N2 atmosphere. Furthermore, if the reactions were first performed under conditions identical to those for the α-arylation reaction for 12 h and then exposed to air for another 3 h, 3-aryl-3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles 5 can be obtained in 49-84% yields in a one-pot procedure.

Facile synthesis of enantioenriched Cγ-tetrasubstituted α-amino acid derivatives via an asymmetric nucleophilic addition/protonation cascade

Chemical equations presented. An asymmetric nucleophilic addition/protonation reaction of 3-substituted oxindoles and ethyl 2-phthalimidoacrylate has been described. This strategy can give direct access to Cγ-tetrasubstituted α-amino acid derivatives bearing 1,3-nonadjacent stereocenters with up to 98% yield, 94:6 dr, and >99% ee. Dual activation is proposed in the transition state, and the opposite enantiomers can be obtained simply by changing cinchonidine-derived catalyst to the cinchonine analogue.
