An efficient electrochemical oxidation strategy for the total synthesis of a dimeric hexahydropyrrolo[2,3-b]indole alkaloid, (±)-folicanthine (1b), has been envisioned. Control experiments suggest that a PCET pathway involving stepwise electron transfer f

Candida antarctica (CAL-B) lipase-catalyzed resolution of 1,3-dialkyl-3-hydroxymethyl oxindoles has been performed to obtain (R)-1,3-dialkyl-3-acetoxymethyl oxindoles with up to 99% ee and (S)-1,3-dialkyl-3-hydroxymethyl oxindoles with up to 78% ee using vinyl acetate as acylating agent and acetonitrile as solvent transforming (S)-3-allyl-3-hydroxymethyl oxindole to (3S)-1′-benzyl-5-(iodomethyl)-4,5-dihydro-2H-spiro[furan-3,3′-indolin]-2′-one. The optically active 3-substituted-3-hydroxymethyl oxindoles and spiro-oxindoles are among the key synthons in the synthesis of potentially biologically active molecules.
Nucleophilic Ring Opening of Donor-Acceptor Cyclopropanes with the Cyanate Ion: Access to Spiro[pyrrolidone-3,3′-oxindoles]

The nucleophilic ring opening of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes with the cyanate ion is reported for the first time. Cyclopropanes, spiro-activated with oxindole fragments as acceptors, are shown to undergo transformations into biologically relevant spiro[pyrrolidone-3,3′-oxindoles] while being treated with potassium cyanate under microwave assistance.
