Synthesis and characterization of a tetracationic acidic organic salt and its application in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes and protection of carbonyl compounds

Abstract

A new tetracationic acidic organic salt (TCAOS) based on DABCO was prepared, characterized and applied as an eco-friendly, powerful and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes from indoles and carbonyl compounds in water with high turnover frequency (TOF). Also, this catalyst was successfully applied for acetalization of carbonyl compounds with diols under solvent-free conditions.
