Highly Efficient and Stereoselective Construction of Dispiro-[oxazolidine-2-thione]bisoxindoles and Dispiro[imidazolidine-2-thione]bisoxindoles
摘要:
An efficient and stereoselective reaction between 3-isothiocyanato oxindoles and isatins/isatinimines has been developed to afford structurally diverse dispiro[oxazolidine-2-thione]bisoxindoles and dispiro[imidazolidine-2-thione]bisoxindoles in excellent results under mild conditions. The potential of asymmetric induction by means of a chiral auxiliary was explored. The isomers are separable, and products could be isolated as single diastereomers by column chromatography. Further synthetic transformations of the reaction product were also successfully realized.
Enantioselective and Solvent-Controlled Diastereoselective Mannich Reaction of Isatin Imines with Hydroxyacetone: Synthesis of 3-Substituted 3-Aminooxindoles
The diastereoselectively switchable enantioselective Mannich reaction of isatinimines with hydroxyacetone is reported. The chiral primary amino acid catalyzed this Mannich reaction to afford both anti- and syn-Mannich adducts in high yields, good diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. The reason for the solvent control of the diastereoselectivity phenomenon was investigated.
