	abstract = {Reported is the first organocatalytic asymmetric 1,3-alkyl shift in alkyl aryl ethers for the synthesis of chiral 3,3{\textquoteright}-diaryloxindoles using a chiral Bronsted acid catalyst. Preliminary results showed that each enantiomer of the 3,3{\textquoteright}-diaryloxindole, and a racemic mixture, showed different antiproliferative activities against HeLa cell lines by using an MTT assay.},
