Metal-free cascade cyclization of alkenes toward perfluorinated oxindoles

Abstract

A simple AIBN-mediated cyclization reaction of activated alkenes toward perfluorinated oxindoles is developed. In the presence of readily available AIBN, N-arylacrylamide and perfluoroalkyl iodides underwent perfluorination reaction to give perfluorinated oxindoles in good to excellent yields under metal-free conditions.
