Abstract 4-Bromophenyldi (3-methylindol-2-yl) methane (2) and 2-methoxyphenyldi (3- methylindol-2-yl) methane (3) were prepared by sulfuric-acid-catalyzed reactions of 3- methylindole with 4-bromobenzaldehyde and o-anisaldehyde, respectively. Di (3- methylindol-2-yl) phenylmethane (1) and tri (3-methylindol-2-yl) methane (4) were similarly prepared as described previously. Spectroscopic data (1 H, 13 C NMR) and the X-ray ...
