A TBAB‐mediated radical 5‐ exo‐trig ipso‐ cyclization of N ‐aryl‐2‐arylbenzamide is described herein for the synthesis of spiro[cyclohexane‐1,1′‐isoindoline]‐2,5‐diene‐3′,4‐dione. The transformation proceeds regioselectively and provides the final products with high efficiency and a broad reaction scope. Mechanism studies show the use of TBAB as an additive is pivotal for the reaction. In the process, para ‐bromination of N ‐aryl group, 5‐ exo‐tri ipso ‐cyclization of N ‐aryl‐2‐arylbenzamide nitrogen radical and sequential aromatization is involved.
