Abstract

A variety of 3-hydroxy-isoindolin-1-one derivatives were synthesized using the photodecarboxylative addition of carboxylates to phthalimide derivatives in aqueous media. Subsequent acid-catalyzed dehydration furnished 3-(alkyl and aryl) methyleneisoindolin-1-ones with variable E-diastereoselectivity in good to excellent overall yields. Noteworthy, the parent 3-phenylmethyleneisoindolin-1-one underwent isomerization and oxidative decomposition when exposed to light and air. Selected 3-hydroxy-isoindolin-1-one and 3-(alkyl and aryl)methyleneisoindolin-1-one derivatives showed moderate antibacterial activity that justifies future elaboration and study of these important bioactive scaffolds.
