Abstract

A pseudo-five-component reaction involving double decarboxylative 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with olefinic oxindoles for the diastereoselective synthesis of bispiro[oxindole-pyrrolidine]s is developed. The major diastereomers are unique butterfly shaped compounds with a plane of symmetry. Recyclable zeolite HY acid catalyst is used to promote the reaction, and only CO2 and H2O are generated as byproducts.
