Intramolecular Dehydrogenative Coupling of sp2 C–H and sp3 C–H Bonds: An Expeditious Route to 2-Oxindoles
摘要:
An intramolecular-dehydrogenative-coupling (IDC) using "transition-metal-free" oxidation conditions has been achieved to synthesize a variety of 2-oxindoles bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereogenic center at the benzylic position. The methodology involves a one-pot C-alkylation of beta-N-arylamido esters (3, 6) with alkyl halides using potassium tert-butoxide concomitant with a dehydrogenative coupling. A radical-mediated pathway has been tentatively proposed for the oxidative process.

benzylic position has been achieved via a 'transition-metal-free' intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling (IDC). The construction of 2-oxindole moieties was carried out through formation of carbon-carbon bonds using KOt-Bu-catalyzed one pot C-alkylation of beta-N-arylamido esters with alkyl halides followed by a dehydrogenative coupling. Experimental evidences indicated toward a radical-mediated path for
