Herein, we present a general electrochemical method to access unsymmetrical 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles by direct C-H functionalization where the oxindole fragment behaves as an electrophile. This Umpolung approach does not rely on stoichiometric oxidants and proceeds under mild, environmentally benign conditions. Importantly, it enables the functionalization of these scaffolds through C-O, and by extension to C-C or even C-N bond formation.

The feasibility of using activity-directed synthesis to drive antibacterial discovery was investigated. An array of 220 Pd-catalysed microscale reactions was executed, and the crude product mixtures were evaluated for activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Scale-up of the hit reactions, purification and evaluation, enabled expansion of a class of antibacterial quinazolinones. The novel antibacterials had MICs from 0.016 μg mL-1 (i.e. 38 nM) to 2-4 μg mL-1 against S. aureus ATCC29213. This journal is
Pd(0)-Catalyzed Chemoselective Deacylative Alkylations (DaA) of N-Acyl 2-Oxindoles: Total Syntheses of Pyrrolidino[2,3- b]indoline Alkaloids, (±)-Deoxyeseroline, and (±)-Esermethole

We report an efficient Pd(0)-catalyzed deacylative allylation of N-acyl 3-substituted 2-oxindoles via the coupling of in situ generated nucleophiles (3 and 4) with allyl electrophiles for the synthesis of a variety of 2-oxindoles with C3-quaternary centers. Gratifyingly, this alkylation process is found to be highly chemoselective in nature, where a C-C bond formation is completely predominant over a C-N bond formation. A variety of key intermediates were synthesized utilizing an aforementioned methodology.
