Abstract

We report a palladium-catalyzed Heck-carbonylation of alkene-tethered carbamoyl chlorides by utilizing aryl formates as convenient CO surrogates. One C-O and two C-C bonds are constructed to give diversiform esterified oxindoles/γ-lactams bearing an all-carbon quaternary stereocenter under gas-free conditions. This transformation features a wide substrate scope and good functional group tolerance and can be easily applied to late-stage functionalization.
