Graphical Abstract
  • (Scheme 10). With catalyst 26 prepared, its use was then studied as a halogen-bond donor in the catalytic synthesis of 28 (Scheme 11) [93][94]. Having identified the optimum reaction conditions, the general applicability was studied by reacting various indoles with a range of aldehydes and ketones to
