The synthesis of a variety of 2-oxindoles bearing an all-carbon quaternary center at the pseudo benzylic position has been achieved via a ‘transition-metal-free’ intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling (IDC). The construction of 2-oxindole moieties was carried out through formation of carbon–carbon bonds using KOt-Bu-catalyzed one pot C-alkylation of β-N-arylamido esters with alkyl halides followed by a dehydrogenative coupling. Experimental evidences indicated toward a radical-mediated path for this reaction.

During the past several decades, hypervalent iodine reagents have been widely used in various organic transformations. Specifically, these exclusive classes of reagents have been extensively used for the construction of carbon-carbon bonds. This review aims to cover all the reactions involving the construction of carbon-carbon bonds mediated by hypervalent iodine reagents, providing references and highlights for synthetic chemists who are interested in hypervalent iodine chemistry.
