Procedure: N-benzylisatin (13.0 g, 55 mmol) was mixed with hydrazine hydrate (60 mL) and placed in an oil bath. The mixture was heated in stages to 125° C., becoming first a green sludge, then yellow with clumps of a sticky solid. After a total of 5 h at 125° C., the mixture was cooled and extracted with EtOAc (2×100 mL). The combined organic portions were washed twice with 1.0 M aq. H2SO4, and once each with half-saturated brine then brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to afford a pale yellow solid. Re-precipitation from ether/pentane gave the title compound as an off-white solid (9.6 g, 75%). Spectral data matches literature values (C. Martin and E. M. Carreira, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2005, 127, 11505-11515). placed in an oil bath After a total of 5 h at 125° C., the mixture was cooled extracted with EtOAc (2×100 mL) The combined organic portions were washed twice with 1.0 M aq.

Procedure: The title compound was prepared in a manner similar to the method of N-Benzyl-oxindole using 5-fluoro-N-benzylisatin (14.5 g, 56.8 mmol). Trituration using Et2O: hexane yielded the title compound as a pale yellow solid (10.3 g, 75%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.30-7.26 (m, 5H), 7.00 (d, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 6.87 (t, 1H), 6.63 (m, 1H), 4.91 (s, 2H), 3.63 (s, 2H); MS ESI 241.9 [M+H]+, calcd for [C15H10FNO2+H]+ 241.09.

Procedure: Prepared according to literature procedure (C. Martin and E. M. Carreira, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2005, 127, 11505-11515). A stirred solution of isatin (10.0 g, 68 mmol) in dry DMF (125 mL) was cooled in an ice bath before addition of sodium hydride (60 wt % in mineral oil, 2.86 g, 71.5 mmol) in 10 portions, the orange solution turning quickly purple. When no further evolution of gas was observed, benzyl bromide (13.4 g, 78.0 mmol) was added by syringe. A colour change back to orange was observed within 20 min Water (300 mL) was added with stirring, and the resulting orange-red precipitate collected by filtration and washed with water and a little cold ethanol. The solid was then recrystallized from boiling ethanol (300 mL) to afford N-benzylisatin (13.7 g, 85%) as long, red needles. N-benzylisatin (13.0 g, 55 mmol) was mixed with hydrazine hydrate (60 mL) and placed in an oil bath. The mixture was heated in stages to 125° C., becoming first a green sludge, then yellow with clumps of a sticky solid.
