Abstract
(Chemical Equation Presented) A new, facile, efficient, "green" and chemoselective procedure for the synthesis of indole derivatives has been developed with pulverization-activation method catalyzed by Bi(NO 3)3·5H2O (PAMC- Bi(NO3) 3·5H2O) through grinding of indoles with aldehydes or Michael acceptors in the presence of catalytic amounts of Bi(NO 3)3·5H2O under solvent-free conditions.
