Abstract

The p-toluenesulfonic acid catalyzed Povarov reaction of isatin-3-imines with β-enamino esters, which were generated in situ from the reaction of arylamines and methyl propiolate in eth­anol, afforded the polysubstituted spiro[indoline-3,2′-quinolines] in high yields and with high diastereoselectivity.
