Under oxidative conditions using the bisquinone oxidant, the reaction resulted in the synthesis of spiro γ-butyrolactones in moderate to good yields, enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity. The reaction likely proceeds via the generation of the NHC-bound α,β-unsaturated acylazolium intermediate from enals, which was intercepted by the dioxindoles in a formal [3 + 2] pathway to form the spirocyclic compounds. However, a deeper mechanistic investigation revealed that the reaction can also proceed via the homoenolate intermediate. In this case, the dioxindole was oxidized to the corresponding isatin derivative using traces of air under basic conditions, and was intercepted with the NHC-bound homoenolate intermediate in a formal [3 + 2] pathway to afford the spiro compound.</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.559</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Premaletha, Sethulekshmi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ghosh, Arghya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joseph, Sumi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddy, Santhi Vardhan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biju, Akkattu T.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Facile synthesis of N-acyl 2-aminobenzothiazoles by NHC-catalyzed direct oxidative amidation of aldehydes</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">53</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1478 - 1481</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A mild, general, and high yielding synthesis of N-acyl 2-aminobenzothiazoles has been demonstrated by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-organocatalyzed direct amidation of aldehydes with 2-aminobenzothiazoles proceeding via acyl azolium intermediates. The carbene generated from the triazolium salt under oxidative conditions was the key for the success of this reaction. The method was subsequently applied to the synthesis of various biologically important N-acyl 2-aminobenzothiazoles.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.567</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
