Abstract
A simple green synthesis of bis (indolyl)methanes involved the reaction of indole with aldehydes in the presence of a phosphonium salt ionic liquid as the catalyst. The simple experimental procedures, short reaction times, high yields of product, non-toxic catalyst and the absence of solvent are the advantages of this method.
