Abstract An eco-friendly and efficient Meldrum's acid-induced and FeCl3-catalyzed domino reactions of aromatic aldehydes and indoles for the formation of 3,3′-bis(indolyl)methanes has been developed. The present strategy features with inexpensive catalyst, green solvent, mild conditions, good functional group tolerance, and gram-scale synthesis. The transformation proceeded by a domino esterification
摘要 开发了一种环保且高效的 Meldrum 酸诱导和 FeCl 3催化的芳香醛和
吲哚多米诺反应,用于形成 3,3'-双(
吲哚基)
甲烷。本策略具有催化剂廉价、
溶剂绿色、条件温和、官能团耐受性好和克级合成的特点。转化通过多米诺酯化、Knoevenagel 缩合、1,2-加成、消除和随后的 1,4-共轭加成过程进行。
