Pd-catalyzed asymmetric prenylation of oxindoles to afford selectively either the prenyl or reverse-prenyl product has been demonstrated. Control of the regioselectivity in this transformation is governed by the choice of ligand, solvent, and halide additive. The resulting prenylated and reverse-prenylated products were transformed into ent-flustramides and ent-flustramines A and B. Additionally, control of the regio- and diastereoselectivity was obtained using pi-geranylpalladium complexes.
