Increasing interests have been invested in the development of synthetic strategies toward the construction of spiro[pyrrolidine-2,3'-oxindole], which is the core structural skeleton in some compounds with diverse biological activities. In this work, an efficient diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethine ylides generated in situ from 3-amino oxindoles and aldehydes with...

In the title compound, C(31)H(28)ClN(3)O(8), the pyrrolidine ring exhibits an envelope conformation, with the spiro C atom located at the flap position. A spiro junction links the oxindole ring system and the pyrrolidine ring. The planar oxindole ring system is twisted with respect to the nitro-benzene and chloro-benzene rings, with dihedral angles of 62.34 (11) and 75.93 (9)°, respectively. In...

The reactivity of 2-oxindoles bearing a C=X double bond (X=C<, N?, O) in the 3-position towards variety 1,3-dipolar species has been reviewed systematic way according to type 1,3-dipole, 2-oxindole dipolarophile, and racemic or asymmetric nature cycloaddition. Because great resulting spiro-2-oxindole skeletons, developments occurred 2010–2020 decade were taken into account.

The first organocatalytic Michael-cyclization cascade reaction between isothiocyanato oxindoles and unsaturated pyrazolones has been developed. The multicyclic spiro[oxindole/thiobutyrolactam/pyrazolone] core structures containing three contiguous stereogenic centers, including two spiro quaternary centers, were prepared with excellent diastereo- (up to >20 : 1) and enantioselectivities (up to ...

We report an unusual face selective reduction of the exocyclic double bond in the α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone motif of spiro-oxindole systems. The spiro-oxindoles were assembled by an indium metal mediated Barbier-type reaction followed by an acid catalyzed lactonization.

This work describes the synthesis of enantioenriched spiro compounds, incorporating the azetidine and the oxindole motifs. The preparation relies on a formal [2 + 2] annulation reaction of isatin-derived N-tert-butylsulfonyl ketimines with allenoates. The asymmetric induction is secured by an organocatalytic strategy, exploiting a bifunctional cinchona-type β-isocupridine-based catalyst. Some p...

The title compound, C(21)H(21)N(3)O(3), was synthesized by a multi-component 1,3-dipolar cyclo-addition of azomethine ylide, derived from isatin and proline by a deca-rboxylative route, and (E)-1-phenyl-2-nitro-propene. In the mol-ecule, the spiro junction links a planar oxindole ring and a pyrrolidine ring in an envelope conformation. The mol-ecular packing is stabilized by an inter-molecular ...

A fast and convenient protocol for the synthesis of novel spiro[dihydropyridine-oxindole] derivatives in satisfactory yields was developed by the three-component reactions of arylamine, isatin and cyclopentane-1,3-dione in acetic acid at room temperature. On the other hand the condensation of isatin with two equivalents of cyclopentane-1,3-dione gave 3,3-bis(2-hydroxy-5-oxo-cyclopent-1-enyl)oxi...

The spiro[pyrrolidine-3, 3´-oxindole] moiety is present as a core in number of alkaloids with substantial biological activities. Here in we report design and synthesis of a library of compounds bearing spiro[pyrrolidine-3, 3´-oxindole] motifs that demonstrated exceptional inhibitory activity against the proliferation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The synthesis involved a one pot Pictet Spengler...

In the title compound, C26H20N4O2S, the central pyrrolidine ring adopts a twist conformation on the C-C bond involving the spiro C atom. Its mean plane makes dihedral angles of 78.83 (14), 65.91 (15) and 44.49 (18)° with the mean planes of the adjacent oxindole ring system, the indole system and the thio-phene ring, respectively. The indole and indoline units are essentially planar, with maximu...
