%X A concise,
one-step route to produce 3,3′-diindolylmethanes
(DIMs) from simple indoles and ketones or aldehydes is reported. The
key step is the ready formation of indole derivatives that involves
the in situ conversion of CF3SO2Na reagent to
·CF3 under oxygen or air (1.0 atm) and UV irradiation.
It is disclosed that most of the obtained DIMs show anticancer activities
in human bladder cancer cell lines EJ and T24.
