Abstract
In this manuscript, we report a straightforward route to spirooxindoles by Pd-catalyzed cycloadditions of 5-vinyloxazolidine-2,4-diones with isatins. After a screening of chiral ligands, DTBM-SEGPHOS was selected to induce high diastereo- and enantiocontrol of the two newly created tetrasubstituted stereocenters. Our investigation demonstrated broad functional group tolerance under the reaction conditions. Overall, this work represents a rare example of Pd-catalyzed cycloadditions involving 5- vinyloxazolidine-2,4-diones and electrophilic C=O bonds.
