catalytic system (unfunctional mesoporous material MCM-41), which efficiently promoted one-pot synthesis of spiro[indoline-3,2′-pyrrolidin]-ones, has been developed. Under mild reaction conditions, a series of spiro[indoline-3,2′-pyrrolidin]-ones derivatives were synthesized in good yields (up to 95%) in water/ethanol = 2/1 as solvent. Notably, the unfunctional MCM-41 catalyst could be easily recovered
