Procedure

To a mixture of isatin (5.0 g, 35 mmol), K2CO3 (5.5 g, 40 mmol) and chloroacetamide (3.74 g, 40 mmol) in a 100 mL of flask was added DMF (25 mL). The resulting mixture was heated at 90° C. (oil temp.) for 2 h. After cooling to rt, it was poured onto ice/H2O (200 mL) and the resulting precipitate was collected by suction filtration to give 2-(2,3-dioxoindolin-1-yl)acetamide (4.32 g) after drying. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.72 (s, 1H), 7.65 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 7.58 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 7.30 (s, 1H), 7.14 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 7.02 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 4.25 (s, 2H).
