General description

5-Fluoroisatin has been reported as the precursor of the Sunitinib (Sutent) drug. 5-Fluoroisatin has been approved by the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) in 2006 for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).[1]

Application

5-Fluoroisatin may be used:
  • as reaction-based probe for live-cell detection of peroxynitrite by 19F magnetic resonance spectroscopy[2]
  • in non-invasive detection of peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) formation in living lung epithelial cells stimulated with interferon-γ (IFN-γ)[2]
  • in the synthesis of bis-Schiff bases, via condensation with aromatic primary bis-amines in water suspension medium without using any organic solvent or acid catalyst[3]
  • in the synthesis of 3-acetonyl-5-fluoro-3-hydroxyoxindole[4]
Reactant for preparation of:
  • Spiro[indole-thiazolidinones] as biologically relevan synthesis scaffolds
  • Potential antimycobacterial agents
  • Inhibitors of c-Met kinase
  • Inhibitors of TAK1 kinase
  • Herpes simplex virus inhibitors
  • IKKβ inhibitors
  • Inhibitors of vitiligo disease
  • Potential drug candidates with anti-HIV activity and anti-tubercular activity

We report a newly discovered oxidative decarbonylation reaction of isatins that is selectively mediated by peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) to provide anthranilic acid derivatives. We have harnessed this rapid and selective transformation to develop two reaction-based probes, 5-fluoroisatin and 6-fluoroisatin, for the

Condensation of aromatic primary bis-amines with isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione) and 5-flouroisatin occurred cleanly and efficiently in a water suspension medium without using any organic solvent or acid catalyst. The corresponding bis-Schiff bases were obtained in good yields and were easily isolated
