A mild and efficient CAN mediated oxidation of Morita–Baylis–Hillman adducts of 5-methyl-N-alkylisatin to 5-formyl-N-alkylisatin
摘要:
A simple, mild and efficient CAN mediated oxidation of Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts of 5-methyl-N-alkylisatins 1a-13a to 5-formyl-N-alkylisatins lb-13b under ambient reaction conditions is reported. Simple and isomerized 5-methyl-N-alkylisatin derivatives 1-4 have also been tested and failed to provide the corresponding formylated products. A plausible reaction mechanism has been proposed.

An efficient and facile synthesis of divergent C-3/C-5 bis-functionalized 2-oxindole derivatives has been achieved from 3,5-bis-Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) adducts of oxindole via nucleophilic substitution reaction for the first time. Wider scope of substrate and rate acceleration has been observed in second MBH reaction under typical reaction condition. The synthetic usefulness of bi-functionalized bis-allyl derivative has been demonstrated by the synthesis of potent bis-pyrazole via [3 + 2]-annulation strategy.
