Pathways for direct conversion of indoles to oxindoles have accumulated considerable interest in recent years due to their significance in the clear comprehension of various pathogenic processes in humans and the multipotent therapeutic value of oxindole pharmacophores. Heme enzymes are predominantly responsible for this conversion in biology and are thought to proceed with a compound-I active oxidant. These heme-enzyme-mediated indole monooxygenation pathways are rapidly emerging therapeutic targets; however, a clear mechanistic understanding is still lacking. Additionally, such knowledge holds promise in the rational design of highly specific indole monooxygenation synthetic protocols that are also cost-effective and environmentally benign. We herein report the first examples of synthetic compound-I and activated compound-II species that can effectively monooxygenate a diverse array of indoles with varied electronic and steric properties to exclusively produce the corresponding 2-oxindole products in good to excellent yields. Rigorous kinetic, thermodynamic, and mechanistic interrogations clearly illustrate an initial rate-limiting epoxidation step that takes place between the heme oxidant and indole substrate, and the resulting indole epoxide intermediate undergoes rearrangement driven by a 2,3-hydride shift on indole ring to ultimately produce 2-oxindole. The complete elucidation of the indole monooxygenation mechanism of these synthetic heme models will help reveal crucial insights into analogous biological systems, directly reinforcing drug design attempts targeting those heme enzymes. Moreover, these bioinspired model compounds are promising candidates for the future development of better synthetic protocols for the selective, efficient, and sustainable generation of 2-oxindole motifs, which are already known for a plethora of pharmacological benefits.

We report the development of a rapid approach for directly converting indoles into 2-oxindoles promoted by HOCl formed in situ from the combination of (bis(trifluoroacetoxy) iodo)benzene (PIFA) and n-Bu4NCl ? H2O. The procedure is widely functional group tolerant and provides 2-oxindoles in up to 95% yield within 5 min. The potential applications of the developed methodology are demonstrated by the gram-scale preparation of 3-methyl-2-oxindole (11 a), the one-pot two-step syntheses of spiro-oxindoles 26 a and 26 b, and the formal synthesis of (-)-folicanthine (2). (Figure presented.).

An enantioselective fluorination of 3-functionalized oxindoles using electron-rich amino urea catalyst is described. Various 3-functionalized 3-fluoro-2-oxindoles were obtained in good yields and enantio-selectivity. The resulting enantioenriched 3-methylene nitrile 3-fluoro-2-oxindole product was found to inhibit indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase considerably. (Figure presented.).

Paragraph 0105; 0106; 0107; 0108, (2018/06/26)
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry and particularly relates to a method of preparing 3-substituted oxidized indole and a derivative. In themethod, with a 3-substituted indole derivative as a raw material and one or more of a tetrabutyl ammonium halide compound/sodium chloride/sodium iodide/potassium iodide as additives, and one or more of dichloromethane/1,2-dichloroethane/tetrahydrofurane/methylbenzene/1,4-dioxane/ethyl acetate/methanol are added as solvents; then one or more of [bis(trifluoroacetoxyl)iodine]benzene/iodosobenzene diacetate are added as oxidants in order to carry out a reaction with reaction temperature being controlled, thus producing the 3-substituted oxidized indole derivative. The method has gentle reaction conditions, simple operations, short reaction time and high yield, and is free of a metal catalyst and is environment-friendly.

A practical conversion of indoles into the corresponding 2-oxindoles is achieved efficiently using a hypervalent iodine reagent. This oxidation is amenable to different substituted indoles, and allows the synthesis of a wide range of synthetically valuable substituted 2-oxindoles in up to 90 % yield. Furthermore, Ropinirole, a drug used to alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, was synthesized in three steps in an overall yield of 44 % using this method.

An oxidative sequence for the conversion of oxindoles to structurally distinct heterocyclic scaffolds and aniline derivatives is disclosed by the combination of a copper-catalyzed C-H peroxidation and subsequent base-mediated fragmentation reaction. In contrast to classic enzymatic (i.e., kynurenine pathway) and biomimetic methods (i.e., Witkop-Winterfeldt oxidation) for oxidative indole cleavage, this protocol allows for the incorporation of external nucleophiles. The new transformation displays broad functional group tolerance and is applicable to tryptophan derivatives, opening potential new avenues for postsynthetic modification of polypeptides, bioconjugation, and unnatural amino acid synthesis.

The first enantioselective total syntheses of architecturally interesting prenylated pyrroloindole alkaloids, (-)-pseudophrynamines 272A (3d) and 270 (3b), have been achieved starting from enantioenriched 2-oxindoles having all-carbon quaternary stereocenters. A common strategy involving a thio-urea catalyzed aldol reaction is employed for the total synthesis of both spiro(pyrrolidinyl-oxindole) and hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole alkaloids.

A facile and straightforward method was developed to construct the fused tetracyclic 3-spirooxindole skeleton, which exists widely in natural products. The formation of the tetracyclic 3-spirooxindole structure was achieved through a transition-metal-free intramolecular cross-dehydrogenative coupling of pyridinium, which were formed in situ by the condensation of 3-(2-bromoethyl)indolin-2-one derivatives with 3-substituted pyridines. As examples of the application of this new methodology, two potentially medicinal natural products, (±)-corynoxine and (±)-corynoxine B, were efficiently synthesized in five scalable steps.
