Multicomponent reaction discovery: three-component synthesis of spirooxindoles.

ABSTRACT: The Lewis acid-catalyzed, three-component reaction of isatin and two 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds is reported. Reactions proceed with high efficiency under mild reaction conditions and with good functional group tolerance to afford spirooxindole pyranochromenedione derivatives.
