Abstract

Abstract The reductive cyclization of N-oxoacyl ortho-bromoanilides to form 3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles under the conditions of palladium catalyzed hydrogenation is described. This work may be viewed as a prelude to intermolecular hydrogen-mediated Grignard-type reductive couplings of organic halides with carbonyl compounds.
