β-(3-Indolyl)-α,β-dihydro-α-cinnamylideneketones and bis(3-indolyl)methylbenzene have been obtained in moderate to good yield by conjugate addition of indole with α-cinnamylideneketones under mild reaction condition in dry ethanol using iodine as catalyst. The structures of the products have been established from their spectral data.
