Abstract

A simple one-pot synthesis of 3-(aminomethylene)oxindoles was achieved by the reaction of α-azido ketones and isatylidene malononitriles via Michael addition followed by the conversion of azides to amines. All the synthesized 3-(aminomethylene)oxindoles exhibited good diastereoselectivity<i>.</i>
