摘要
The preparation of 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles by a formal C-H, Ar-H coupling of anilides is described. Highly efficient conditions have been Identified using catalytic (5 mol %) Cu(OAc)(2)center dot H(2)O with atmospheric oxygen as the reoxidant; no additional base is required, and the reaction can be run in toluene or mesitylene. Optimization studies are reported together with a scope and limitation investigation based on variation of the anilide precursors. The application of this methodology to prepare a key Intermediate for the total synthesis of the anticancer, analgesic oxindole alkaloid Horsfiline is also described.
