A new CuI/1,10-phen-catalyzed reaction for the synthesis of 3-ylideneoxindoles from readily available isatins and ethyl isocyanoacetate, in which ethyl isocyanoacetate acts as a latent two-carbon donor like the Wittig reagent, is reported. A tandem procedure including 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition/inverse 1,3-dipolar ring opening/olefination allows the preparation of 3-ylideneoxindoles with broad functional
An efficient organocatalytic Michael-aldol cascade reaction for the asymmetric synthesis of spirocyclic oxindole derivatives fused with tetrahydrothiophenes has been developed through a formal [3+2] annulation strategy.
A highlydiastereoselective and regioselective [2+2]-cycloaddition reaction of 3-ylideneoxindoles has been accomplished using visible light photocatalysis. This visible light photocatalytic protocol allows an expedient access to diversely functionalized and structurally constrained oxindolederivatives containing two spirocycles and four stereogenic centers, including two all-carbon quaternary centers
(E)-3-Ylideneoxindoles are prepared in methanol in reasonable to good yields, as adducts of photochemical 5-exo-trig of aryl radicals, in contrast to previously reported analogous radical cyclizations initiated by tris(trimethylsilyl)silane and azo-initiators that gave reduced oxindole adducts.

A‐spiro‐ing to greatness: The catalytic asymmetric Michael addition/cyclization of isothiocyanato oxindoles has been realized. This versatile approach provides an easy and highly efficient way to access not only the enantioselective synthesis of 3,2′‐pyrrolidinyl spirooxindole frameworks, but also the construction of enatiomerically enriched bi‐spirooxindoles containingthreecontiguous stereocenters
