Abstract: Directed by the strategy of C−H activation relay (CHAR), an efficient construction of isatin skeleton was developed through catalytic oxidation of glycine esters. The mechanistic study reveals that the oxidation of the relatively active C−H bonds initiated the followed activation of remote and inert C−H bonds, and an intramolecular 1,6-hydrogen shift was involved as a key step.
