First asymmetric decarboxylative cyanomethylation of isatins is reported herewith using bifunctional thiourea derived from l-proline in good yields and enantioselectivities. This strategy enables the construction of various 3-cyanomethylene substituted 3-hydroxyoxindoles in enantioselective manner. Enantioselective synthesis of CPC-1 alkaloid has been accomplished in fewer steps.
