Abstract

Introduction

The synthesis of bisindolylalkanes has been carried out for more than two decades using several catalysts.

Methods

In the present study, naturally available orange juice has been demonstrated to be an efficient green catalyst for the synthesis of bisindolylalkanes from the reaction of indoles with different carbonyl compounds.

Results

In this one-step process, the products were obtained with excellent yield and in a short reaction time.

Conclusion

This reaction-catalysed by orange juice is a new, inexpensive, and environment-friendly synthetic procedure for the preparation of bisindolylalkanes.
