Regioselective N-beta-glucosamination of various unsubstituted or C4-, C5-, or C6-monosubstituted indolin-2-ones under phase transfer conditions was studied. The regioselectivity was unambiguously proved by (1)H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis. The presence of a substituent at C7 of the aromatic ring leads to the formation of either a mixture of isomeric N-beta- and O-beta-D-glucosaminides or only oxazoline and/or 2-acetamidoglycal irrespective of the reaction conditions.
