An Expedient Stereoselective Synthesis of Spirocyclopropyl Oxindoles from Indolin‐2‐One/N‐Protected Indolin‐2‐Ones and Bromonitroalkenes

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

A direct and much simpler way was developed for the diastereoselective synthesis of spiro cyclopropan‐1,3′‐oxindoles from indolin‐2‐one/N‐protected indolin‐2‐ones and bromonitroalkene. The fused restrained cyclopropanes were obtained with high diastereomeric ratios (upto >99:1) and in reasonable to high isolated chemical yields (upto 94%).
