Lewis acid-catalyzed cyclization of various 2-(N-arylcarbamoyl)-methylenemalonates to give nitrogen-containing benzo-annelated heterocycles was investigated in terms of selectivity. Reaction of substrates with various alkyl groups on nitrogen proceeded to give oxindole derivatives. Cyclization reaction of diester-amides of MeO and halooen-substituted anilines in the presence of catalytic Lewis acid (ZnCl2, SnCl4, AlCl3, Zn(OTf)(2), Sc(OTf)(3), etc.) gave oxindoles in high yields. Interesting regioselectivity was observed for meta- halogen substrates. Dimethoxyisoquinoline analogs were also obtained by this reaction using a catalytic Lewis acid.
