Experimental Procedure: 3,3′-Bis(indolyl)phenylmethane (1a, 1 mmol, 322 mg) was taken up in a round-bottom flask containing MeCN (5 mL). I2 (2 mol%) was added and the mixture refluxed for 20 min. The obtained solid was filtered, dried, and recrystallized from a mixture of DMF-CHCl3. The structure of the compound obtained was identified from spectroscopic data and elemental analysis.6,12-Diphenyl-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-
