Abstract
A sequential three-component reaction of aromatic aldehydes with Meldrum's acid and N-methyl indole in the presence of choline chloride/urea ionic liquid as green catalyst has been described. In this one-pot multicomponent reaction, a series of indole-3-propanamide derivatives were synthesized with good to excellent yields. This methodology shows several advantages including fast reaction, easy isolation, operational simplicity that make it a useful and attractive option for the library generation of indole-3-propanamides (5a–l) for drug discovery.
