Regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of thioxothiazolidin-indolin-2-ones, oxoindolin-carbamodithioate hybrids, and their base-catalyzed conversion into dispirocyclopentanebisoxindoles

Abstract

Abstract In this publication, we reported a regio-, diastereoselective, and kinetically controlled reaction for synthesizing thioxothiazolidin-indolin-2-ones, oxoindolin-carbamodithioate hybrids, and their base-catalyzed conversion into dispirocyclopentanebisoxindoles. Obtaining only the kinetic thioxothiazolidin-indolin-2-one products together with their straightforward conversion to dispirocyclopentanebisoxindoles, excellent regio- and diastereoselectivity, easy reaction workup, and one-pot synthetic operation are considerable advantages of this work.
