The flexible and simple cascade reaction involving a Michael–aldol or vinylogous Henry-
acetalization relay is described. We have used the cascade reaction to assemble …

The synthesis of spirooxindoles bearing tetrahydro-4 H-cyclopenta [b] furan framework was
established starting from isatin-derived aldehydes and 2 equiv of 1, 3-dicarbonyl …

Drug‐like spirocyclic scaffolds have been prepared asymmetrically by fusing fully
functionalized cyclohexanes with medicinally important pyrazolone, rhodanine, barbituric …

The highly efficient construction of five and six membered heterocycle fused spirooxindoles
was achieved via the [4+ 1] and formal [4+ 2] cycloaddition reactions between our rationally …

Spirooxindoles have become a privileged skeleton given their broad and promising
activities in various therapeutic areas. The strategies and catalyst systems described here …

A library of novel dispiro compounds containing oxindole pyrrolidine/oxindolopyrrolothiazole-
thiochroman-4-one hybrid frameworks has been synthesized in a fully regio-and …

Spiro polycyclic compounds bearing pyran ring systems are found in bioactive molecules,
and we recently reported the construction of spirooxindole all-carbon polycycles. Here we …
