Abstract

Montmorillonite K10 was found to catalyze the Michael addition of indoles or pyrrole with nitroalkenes efficiently under solventless condition. The short reaction time, simple workup, and excellent yields were noteworthy. The green catalyst could be reused for three runs without considerable variation in yield.
