Allylic arylative isomerisation of Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct of isatin derivatives with arenes using FeCl3 and K-10 clay
Abstract
Allylic arylative isomerisation of Morita-Baylis-Hillman adduct of isatin derivatives with different arenes using eco-friendly FeCl3 and K-10 clay under thermal heating was accomplished, in good to excellent yields (66–79%). The methodology was extended to benzaldehyde derived simple MBH adducts also. The details of the work are elaborately discussed in this letter.
