Abstract

A one-pot protocol, consisting of a Pd-catalysed carboamination reaction, followed by N-deprotection and oxidative denitrogenation, has been developed for the synthesis of diversely substituted spirocyclopropyloxindoles, in yields up to 73% and with diastereoselectivity close to 1 : 1. Readily accessible starting materials, mild reaction conditions, an easy to operate one-pot procedure and good functional group tolerance make this transformation a versatile tool for the synthesis of substituted spirocyclopropyloxindoles. This protocol successfully works on the gram-scale and allows access to both diastereoisomers separately. A plausible mechanism was proposed, and a series of post-transformations were performed on the obtained products, showing their remarkable synthetic versatility.
