“…Alternative strategies include synthetic protocols starting from intermediate A or B.In particular, based on such a methodology, the synthesis of asymmetric BIMs was reported by Bergman[23]. Moreover, BIMs have been produced through photochemicalinduced methods[24][25][26], and ultrasound and microwave irradiation[27,28], with the aim to establish green and health-caring approaches.Nevertheless, the standard method remains the most straightforward and versatile approach for access to BIM derivatives. In fact, the reaction has been extensively studied using a wide variety of Brønsted and Lewis acids in solution and several solids with acid behaviour for heterogeneous catalysis.…”

The potential of aerogels as catalysts for the synthesis of a relevant class of bis-heterocyclic compounds such as bis(indolyl)methanes was investigated. In particular, the studied catalyst was a nanocomposite aerogel based on nanocrystalline nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) dispersed on amorphous porous silica aerogel obtained by two-step sol–gel synthesis followed by gel drying under supercritical conditions and calcination treatments. It was found that the NiFe2O4/SiO2 aerogel is an active catalyst for the selected reaction, enabling high conversions at room temperature, and it proved to be active for three repeated runs. The catalytic activity can be ascribed to both the textural and acidic features of the silica matrix and of the nanocrystalline ferrite. In addition, ferrite nanocrystals provide functionality for magnetic recovery of the catalyst from the crude mixture, enabling time-effective separation from the reaction environment. Evidence of the retention of species involved in the reaction into the catalyst is also pointed out, likely due to the porosity of the aerogel together with the affinity of some species towards the silica matrix. Our work contributes to the study of aerogels as catalysts for organic reactions by demonstrating their potential as well as limitations for the room-temperature synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes.
