• and proceeds through a by base-promoted annulation reaction of α-halogenated N-acylhydrazones and isatin-derived MBH carbonates. The reaction mechanism of this formal [4 + 3] annulation includes the in situ generated allylic ylide, nucleophilic substitution, Michael additon, and elimination processes

• -derived MBH carbonates with α-halogenated N-acylhydrazones for the convenient synthesis of functionalized spiro[indoline-3,5'-[1,2]diazepine] derivatives (reaction 5 in Scheme 1). Results and Discussion Initially, the reaction conditions were screened by employing α-chloro-N-benzoylhydrazone 1a and MBH

• [indoline-3,5'-[1,2]diazepines] 3a–m were obtained in reasonable to good yields. Both, α-chloro- and α-bromo-N-acylhydrazones could be successfully used in the reaction and gave similar results. Also, hydrazones with different benzoyl-protecting groups were well tolerated in the reaction. In general, α
