Synthesis of substituted 1,3-diaryl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indol-4(5H)-ones from 1-aryl-2-arylaminoethanones†
Abstract
A simple and novel method for the synthesis of 1,3-diaryl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indol-4(5H)-ones from 1-aryl-2-arylaminoethanones and substituted cyclohexane-1,3-diones through acetic acid mediated reaction is disclosed.
