Abstract
An efficient, green and sustainable approach for the synthesis of novel polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole compounds was developed. The synthesis included a one-pot, three-component, domino reaction of (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles, isatins and chiral polycyclic α-amino acids under catalyst-free conditions at room temperature in EtOH–H2O. The salient features of this methodology are eco-friendliness, high yields and the ease of obtaining target compounds without the involvement of toxic solvents and column chromatography. These novel polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindoles provide a collection of structurally diverse compounds that show promise for future bioassays and medical treatments.
Introduction
To adhere to the principles of “green chemistry” and “benign by design”,1 there is an immediate need to develop efficient chemical synthetic strategies that are environmentally friendly, sustainable, and atom-economical. To maximize reaction sustainability and safety,2 development of novel synthetic strategies that involve greener reaction media have resulted in sustainable pathways for chemical synthesis.3 An alcohol–water solution, as a nontoxic, inexpensive and widely available solvent, has been shown to not only accelerate the rate of organic reactions, even for water-insoluble reactants, but can also simplify purification operations to standard filtration or recrystallization.4 Recently, multicomponent reactions (MCRs)5 have emerged as efficient tools for synthesizing functionally and chemically diverse novel heterocyclic compounds in organic and medicinal chemistry. Of immediate need is the exploration of new MCRs in alcohol–water solution for the organic synthesis of novel compounds for drug discovery and the promotion of green chemistry.6
Spirooxindole ring systems are frequently encountered in natural alkaloids7 and are often considered as attractive templates for drug discovery.8 Natural and synthetic alkaloids containing an indole moiety exhibit a wide spectrum of biological activities including anti-tumor,9 anti-microbial,10 anti-malarial,11 anti-diabetic,12 anti-tubercular,13 anti-HIV,14 anti-oxidant15 and other biological activities.16 Their remarkable pharmacological activity and unique molecular architecture have made spirooxindoles, and their derivatives, attractive synthetic targets.17 In addition, functionalized polycyclic N-fused-pyrrolidines have also been shown to have a wide spectrum of biological activities that include anti-tumor, anti-HIV and other anti-viral disease activities.18 Spiro-fused cyclic frameworks are known to be the central skeletons of numerous alkaloids and pharmacologically important compounds with various types of bioactivities.19 The two organic frameworks are regarded as templates for drug discovery and scaffolds for combinatorial libraries, respectively,20 the presence of two or more different heterocyclic moieties in a single molecule could remarkably enhance biological activity.21 To date, some representative molecules (1–3) have been designed and synthesized, which exhibit outstanding pharmacological activities22 (Fig. 1). Here we speculate that the integration of spirooxindole, polycyclic N-fused-pyrrolidines and spiro-fused cyclic frameworks into a molecule may result in the discovery of new drug candidates. Polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindoles may exhibit a wide range of useful pharmacological properties and biological activities in combination with the pharmacological activity of spirooxindole, N-fused-pyrrolidines and spiro-fused cyclic frameworks.

Despite recent attention on the synthesis of novel spirocyclic oxindoles, the development of green and sustainable methods to access spirooxindoles remains challenging. Only a limited number of methodologies have been reported for the synthesis of the above-mentioned compounds,23 and most require toxic organic solvents, harsh reaction conditions, expensive catalysts or involve complex separation processes. The development of a milder, more eco-friendly and efficient method for synthesizing combined novel spirooxindoles under aqueous solvent conditions is necessary. Here, we described a relatively easy and green method for the synthesis of novel polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole derivatives (4, 8) (Fig. 1) using a catalyst-free, one-pot three-component reaction of (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles (5), isatins (6) and polycyclic chiral α-amino acids (7) in alcohol–water solution at room temperature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first green synthesis of a heterocyclic compound 4.
Results and discussion
In this study, we report a green method for the synthesis of novel polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole derivatives (4) via one-pot three-component domino reaction of (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-1H-indoles (5), isatins (6) and polycyclic chiral α-amino acids (7) using an alcohol–water solution as a green medium at room temperature.
To establish the feasibility of this strategy as well as to optimize the reaction conditions, the three-component reaction of (E)-1-methyl-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-1H-indole (5a, 1.0 mmol), isatin (6a, 1.1 mmol) and (2S,3aS,7aS)-octahydro-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (7a, 1.2 mmol) was selected as the model reaction. Initially, the model reaction was performed in a range of organic solvents at room temperature for 6 h of stirring (Table 1, entries 1–14). The model reaction barely proceeded when acetone, acetonitrile, toluene and diethyl ether were used as reaction solvents, respectively (Table 1, entries 1–4). Conversely, the model reaction proceeded faster with moderate (38–81%) to high (91–92%) yields when other (non-)low-polar solvents (CH2Cl2, CHCl3) and polar solvents (THF, 1,4-dioxane, DMSO, DMF, iso-propanol, glycerol, MeOH and EtOH) were screened (Table 1, entries 5–14): the highest yield was achieved when EtOH was used as a solvent (Table 1, entry 14, 92% yield). Interestingly, the desired product was also obtained in water medium (Table 1, entry 15) although the yield was only 21%. The low yield in water medium could be attributed to the poor dissolution of raw materials since almost all the unreacted starting material could been recycled and reused.
Table 1 Optimization of the reaction conditions for the model reactiona
Based on a comprehensive assessment of these results, we chose an ethanol–water solution as the optimal reaction solvent, which we then optimized to further explore a more eco-friendly synthetic condition (Table 1, entries 16 and 17). Among the different proportions of EtOH/H2O solvents surveyed, EtOH/H2O (1
:
1) was found to be the most suitable solvent for the model reaction (94% yield, Table 1, entry 16). To maximize the product yield, we then tested the best reaction temperature (Table 1, entries 16, 18–19). Yields were not significantly different when the reaction temperature was increased from room temperature to 50 °C or to reflux (94% vs. 95% vs. 95% yields, respectively, Table 1, entries 16, 18–19): room temperature was the ideal reaction temperature for the synthesis of polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole derivative 4a (94% yield). There was no significant increase in yield when the reaction time was increased from 6 h to 12 h (95% vs. 94% yields, respectively, entries 16, 20). It is worth mentioning that the highly purified target compound could be obtained by filtering the reaction precipitates and then washing with EtOH/H2O (1
:
1) for 2–3 times in the absence of traditional purification techniques such as column chromatography or recrystallization. Overall, the best reaction conditions for synthesizing polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole compound 4a are achieved by employing (E)-1-methyl-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-1H-indole (5a, 1.0 mmol), isatin (6a, 1.1 mmol) and (2S,3aS,7aS)-octahydroindole-2-carboxylic acid (7a, 1.2 mmol) in EtOH/H2O (1
:
1) solvent at room temperature for 6 h.
To explore the scope of the model reaction, we substituted various (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles (5) (Fig. 2) and isatin derivatives (6) (Fig. 2) as well as (2S,3aS,7aS)-octahydro-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (7a) under optimal reaction conditions. Results indicated that the desired polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole compounds could be obtained in relatively high yields (Table 2) from a diverse set of substrates. As shown in Table 2, (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles (5) bearing diverse functional groups, such as H, CH3 or Ph group were suitable for the reaction, respectively. For the isatin derivatives (6), the aromatic ring bearing either electron-donating (CH3, OCH3) or electron-withdrawing functional groups (F, Cl, Br), and substitution patterns (5-substitution, 6-substitution and 7-substitution) could form the target products 4 (4a–4w) with high yields (86–95%).

Table 2 The synthesis of polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole derivatives 4a
To further explore the scope of the procedure reported in Table 2, the methodology was evaluated by using (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-1H-indole (5d), isatin derivatives (6) and chiral α-amino acids (7b) under similar conditions. The reactions proceeded smoothly and the desired polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole compounds (8) from a diverse set of substrates were obtained (Table 3). Isatins with electron-withdrawing groups as well as electron-donating substituents underwent this one-pot conversion to give the corresponding spirooxindoles with high yields (88–96%).
Table 3 The synthesis of polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole derivatives 8a
A plausible reaction mechanism was proposed (Scheme 1) based on our previous work and previous reports.24 The pyrrolidine functionality activates the carbonyl of the isatins through the formation of an enamine intermediate. Accompanying the loss of one H2O and CO2 molecule, a carbanion is produced (transition state I). Subsequently, two nucleophilic carbons then add to the corresponding electron deficient carbons of the dipolarophile during the cycloaddition via a 1,3-cycloaddition reaction (transition state II), which leads to the formation of compounds 4 and 8. From a regioselectivity perspective, the steric bulk of compounds 5 and the stability of the transition state II may explain the configuration of compounds 4 and 8. Some other typical literatures25 could be taken as a support of the regioselectivity of compounds 4 and 8. The structure deduced from NMR data and the reaction mechanism was further confirmed by X-ray analysis of a single crystal of 4c (Fig. 3, CCDC: 1817780†). Of note, in Fig. 3 we only presented one molecule of compound 4c while in the single crystal structure the minimum asymmetric units contain two identical molecules of compound 4c.

Conclusions
In this study, we developed an efficient, green and sustainable approach for the construction of multiple new C–C bonds, C–N bonds and polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused structure, which resulted in the synthesis of 35 novel polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindole compounds. This synthetic method involves a one-pot, three-component domino reaction of (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles, isatins and polycyclic chiral α-amino acids under a catalyst-free condition at room temperature in an EtOH–H2O solution. The salient features of this methodology are environmental sustainability, high yields, ease of product purification, and the lack of toxic solvents or column chromatography during synthesis. These novel polycyclic pyrrolidine-fused spirooxindoles provide a collection of promising compounds with structural diversity for future bioassays and medical treatments. In addition, the nitro group can be easily transformed into amines, amides, sulfamides, nitrile oxides and various useful functional groups for the optimization and enhancement of pharmacological activities.
Experimental
General information
Reagents and materials were of the highest commercial grade and were used without further purification. NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker DRX 400 (1H: 400 MHz, 13C: 100 MHz), DRX 500 (1H: 500 MHz, 13C: 125 MHz) or DRX 600 (1H: 600 MHz, 13C: 150 MHz) with TMS as the internal standard. Chemical shifts (δ) were expressed in ppm, J values were given in Hz, and deuterated DMSO-D6 was used as a solvent. IR spectra were recorded on a FT-IR Thermo Nicolet Avatar 360 using KBr pellet. The mass spectroscopic data were obtained from an Agilent 1100 LC/MSD Trap LC-mass spectrometer. Melting points were determined with an XT-4A melting-point apparatus. The reactions were monitored by thin layer chromatography (TLC) with silica gel GF254, and all compounds were visualized by UV and sprayed with H2SO4 (10%) in ethanol, followed by heating. Suitable single crystal was selected. Data collections were performed by graphite-monochromated Mo-Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å). Data reduction, cell refinement and experimental absorption correction were performed with the software package of Agilent Gemini Ultra CrysAlisPro (Ver 1.171.35.11). The structures were solved by direct methods and refined against F2 by full-matrix least-squares. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. All calculations were carried out in SHELXTL ver 6.2 and Olex2 ver 1.2.9.
General procedure for the synthesis of compounds 526
Benzene (18 μL, 0.2 mmol) was titrated into a stirred solution of indole-3-carboxaldehyde (5 mmol) and AcONH4 (385 mg, 5 mmol) in nitromethane (15 mL). The mixture was stirred at reflux for 1–4 h. After the starting aldehyde was completely consumed (monitored by TLC), the reaction mixture was cooled to 0 °C. The reaction was quenched with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3 × 80 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated brine solution (50 mL), followed by drying with Na2SO4 and evaporating in vacuo. The crude product was purified by recrystallization to give the pure corresponding (E)-3-(2-nitrovinyl)-indoles (5).
