Abstract : A mild and rapid one-pot process for Reformatsky and Barbier reactions using a catalytic quantity of zirconocene dichloride (Cp2ZrCl2) as a promoter and zinc as a terminal reductant at room temperature in dimethyl formamide was developed. The protocol has wide substrate suitability and afforded the desired 3-substituted-3-hydroxyindolin-2-ones from istains in good yields and short reaction time.
