Abstract

Abstract: Formation of the monoanions of a series of N-acyl-N-alkyl-o-chloroanilines by means of LDA in THF followed by irradiation with near-UV light affords 1, 3-dialkyloxindoles in good yields. Similar photoinduced cyclizations of dianions derived from N-acyl-o- chloroanilines leads to 3-alkyloxindoles. Photocyclizations of mono-and dianions prepared from a,@-unsaturated o-haloanilides proceed to form 3-alkylideneoxindoles. Carbanions ...
