Abstract: An efficient synthesis of novel dispirooxindoles has been achieved through three- component 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides generated in situ by the decarboxylative condensation of isatin and an α-amino acid with the dipolarophile 5- benzylideneimidazolidine-2, 4-dione. The improved procedure features mild reaction conditions, high yields, high diastereoselectivities, a one-pot procedure and operational ...
