Thus, under the catalysis of PPh3 (20 mol%), a series of spirooxindole- or spiroindan-1,3-dione-cyclohexenes have been obtained in moderate to excellent yields and regioselectivity from the annulations of a-methyl allenoates with 3-methyleneoxindoles or 2-methyleneindan-1,3-diones. This method offers an easy access to structurally novel spirocyclohexenes.展开更多
