To 5 L 4-neck flask (equipped with a mechanical stirrer, condenser and N2 inlet) was charged with 2 L water and 50% sodium hydroxide (NAOH) (2.52 mol, 201.6 g, 2.25 equiv) followed by oxindol (1.12 mol, 150 g, 1 equiv) and the reaction mixture was heated TO-40 C. Dimethylsulfate (1.68 mol, 211.7 g (159 mL), 1.5 equiv) was added slowly via syringe. The addition was slightly exothermic with temperature rising to 53 C. When addition was complete, the reaction mixture was heated to- 100 C and held for 15 minutes (min). The reaction mixture was cooled TO-600 C, and a second portion of dimethylsulfate (0.476 mol, 60 g (45 mL), 0.425 equiv) was added. The reaction mixture was heated TO ~ 100 C and held 15 min. TLC (heptane/ethyl acetate (EtOAc), 1: 1) show methylation was essentially complete. The reaction mixture was cooled TO-50 C and the pH adjusted to-7 with concentrated HCI. The reaction mixture was seeded, cooled to room temperature and allowed to stand overnight. The solids were collected, wash with water (4X) and dried overnight in a vacuum over AT-40 C to give 110.7 g (67%) of 1-methyl-1, 3-dihydroindol-2-one as a pink solid, mp 84-86 C.

According to the analysis of related databases, 59-48-3, the application of this compound in the production field has become more and more popular.
