A novel highly efficient gold-bipyridine catalyst system has been tested for Michael-type Friedel-Crafts reactions. Under the standard conditions, a series of chalcones bearing both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents, reacted with indole to give the corresponding products. The protocol developed represents an efficient methodology for the Friedel-Crafts additions, which are extremely useful synthetic pathways and have widely been used in the construction of a variety of synthetically, as well as biologically important compounds.

Key words: gold complex, indole derivative, Friedel-Crafts addition, unsaturated ketone
