Abstract

Ecofriendly Indium catalyzed synthesis of organic compounds finds various applications in health sectors, electronics, semiconductors, and many more. An efficient co-catalyst and oriented catalyst behavior of Indium has become a choice for many organic transformations. Its compatibility with water, showing nontoxic and nonreactive action, proceeds the reactions with ease. Focus on Indium metal-mediated important organic transformations in water, is visible during the last decades, resulting in diverse organic compounds with excellent yields This present mini-review highlights some important indium metal-mediated reactions in water, for the diverse synthesis of important organic compounds.

Keywords: Indium metal, catalysis, water, synthesis, Lewis acid, organic transformation.
