Abstract: A general synthesis of NH-isatin N′-arylimines involves the aza-Wittig reaction of isatin and aryl azides, providing higher E-diastereoselectivity as compared to previously described methods. The procedure is applicable even to anilines which do not directly react with isatins.

Keywords: aryl isatin imines, aryl azides, imines, isatins, aza-Wittig reaction, stereoselectivity.
