An unprecedented indium-mediated palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylation of isatins with alkynes is disclosed. This reaction provides a new, practical, and straightforward route to access 3-allyl-3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles in good yields with broad substrate scope and scalability, exhibiting high atom and step economy. A primary mechanistic study reveals that indium played two roles in the reaction, first as a reductant and second as a Lewis acid. Compared with previous methods, our strategy eliminated the steps for the separation and purification of the reaction intermediates, as well as pre-installing leaving groups to allylic substrates. Moreover, our reaction did not employ moisture-sensitive allylic metal species and stoichiometric oxidants. (Figure presented.).

Treatment of 2-(1-alkynyl)phenyl isocyanates 6 with the iminophosphorane 14 produced in situ the benzoenynyl carbodiimides 15. Thermolysis of 15 under refluxing p-xylene furnished the 6H-indolo[2,3-b][1,6]naphthyridines 5, which could be regarded as the 5-aza analogues of ellipticine alkaloids. Similarly, condensation of 6 with the iminophosphorane 20 led to the formation of the 6H-indolo[2,3-b][1,5]naphthyridines 25 as the major isomer and the 10H-indolo[2,3-b][1,7]naphthyridines 26 as the minor isomer. The indolonaphthyridines 32, 33, and 34 having a methoxyl substituent were likewise synthesized. Treatment of the diisocyanate 43 with 2 equiv of the iminophosphorane 7 furnished 45 having two indoloquinoline units incorporated in a seven-fused-ring system.
