Abstract:
A new synthesis of spirocyclic oxindole analogue spiro[piperidine-4,3'-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin]-2'(1'H)-one 1 is described.The key steps involve dialkylation of arylacetonitrile and cyclization of the azaoxindole ring by an intramolecular Buchwald-Hartwig amidation of carboxylic ami Je and aryl chloride.A small library was obtained by reductive amination of 1 with various aldehydes and was screened against human lung cancer cell A549,human liver cancer cell BEL7402,and human colon cancer cell HCT-8.The result...
