title: Schischkiniin support studies: synthetic access to 1,1'-bisindoles.
abstract: The first general synthetic approach to 1,1'-bisindoles is described. Two simultaneous, ambient temperature Mori-Ban reactions were used to effect bisindolization of several diallylated hydrazobenzenes with minimal cleavage of the N-N bond.
