Title
Glycerin and citric acid: a green and efficient catalytic medium for synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes
Type Article
Keywords
is(indolyl)methane Glycerin Citric acid Green Indole
Abstract
A green, simple, and highly efficient procedure for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes is described. Condensation of indoles with carbonyl compounds catalyzed by citric acid in glycerin affords the title compounds in high yield and short reaction times.
