Abstract
A series of 3-arylidene-1,3-dihydroindol-2-one derivatives were conveniently synthesised by the condensation of aromatic aldehydes with 1,3-dihydroindol-2-one using a Brønsted acidic ionic liquid as a dual solvent-catalyst. This method has the advantages of short reaction times, simple work-up, high yields with high purity, being environmentally benign and the ionic liquid can be reused.
