Abstract
AbstractDimethyl carbonate (DMC), a non‐toxic liquid, which shows diverse and tunable reactivity in organic synthesis. Herein, we report a nice study on using DMC as both solvent and reactant in palladium‐catalyzed intramolecular Heck/Carbonylation for the synthesis of functionalized isoquinoline‐1,3‐diones and oxindoles. To avoid the usage of toxic CO gas, formic acid is employed as the CO source, and a variety of functionalized isoquinoline‐1,3‐diones and oxindoles were obtained in very good yields.
