[ 1 ] - 1-Carboxymethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride {[cmmim]Cl} as an efficient catalyst for the solvent-free synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes

1-Carboxymethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride {[cmmim]Cl} is utilized as a highly efficient and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes by the condensation reaction of indole with arylaldehydes under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. In summary, the presented method have several advantages including simplicity, low cost, generality, efficiency, clean reaction profi...
