ChemInform Abstract: Diastereoselective Synthesis of Spiro[benzo[d]pyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazole-3,3′-indolines] via Cycloaddition Reaction of N-Phenacylbenzothiazolium Bromides and 3-Methyleneoxindoles.
An efficient protocol for the diastereoselective synthesis of the title compounds by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-phenacylbenzothiazolium and N-phenacylthiazolium bromides with several oxindoles is reported.
