A novel and temperature-controlled oxidation of α-hydroxyamides in the presence of IBX is described. The divergent one-pot synthesis of isatins and α-formyl amides was achieved in good to excellent yields under metal-free conditions. And these two mild methods can tolerate a variety of functional groups, and are operationally simple.
A novel and efficient synthesis of isatins from α-hydroxyamides via ruthenium-mediated aromatic C–H activation is described. The reactions proceeded smoothly under mild conditions and generated the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. This methodology has a broad substrate scope and opens up an interesting and attractive avenue for the application of intramolecular ortho-C–H activation
A new and useful strategy to synthesize isatins from α-formyl amides has been developed via one-pot intramolecular cyclization–oxidation reaction with the present of pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC). The reaction proceeded smoothly under air and has good yields of the corresponding products. Also, this methodology has a broad substrate scope, and is operationally simple and atom economic.
A facile strategy for the synthesis of isatins in high yield from N-alkyl-2-oxo-acetanilides has been developed via Friedel Crafts alkylation using FeCl3 as catalyst under air. This reaction proceeds through direct intramolecular addition and oxidation in one pot. Also this methodology is operationally simple, atom economical, and environment friendly.

A new, efficient Cu-catalyzed intramolecular C-H oxidation/acylation method has been developed for the synthesis of substituted indoline-2,3-diones (isatins). In the presence of CuCl, and O-2, a variety of formyl-N-arylformamides underwent the tandem reaction to afford the corresponding indoline-2,3-diones in moderate to good yields. It is noteworthy that the reaction serves as the first example of transition-metal-catalyzed transformation for the preparation of indoline-2,3-diones.
