ZnO nanorod as the efficient catalyst for the green synthesis of indole derivatives using isatoic anhydride

Indole derivatives have been synthesized in high yields from the reaction of isatoic anhydride, alcohols and alkylbromides inthe presence of ZnO nanorod as a catalyst under solvent-free conditions at 80ºC. The reaction workup is simple and the products canbe easily separated from the reaction mixture. NR-ZnO catalyst exhibited a significant enhancement in the yield of the desiredproduct. The catalyst exhibited remarkable reusable activity.
