	Indole motifs are omnipresent in nature and can be found in many natural products as well as pharmaceuticals. It is for this reason synthetic transformations of indole have become a topic of interest for the organic and medicinal chemist community for decades. In this review, we have emphasized the functionalization of indoles via transition-metal-free approaches. This review touches on many aspects in different sub-sections, which gives a proposition of the tactics employed for the functionalization of indoles and an overview of the road ahead. In this review, essentially transition-metal-free conditions for C-C bond formation reactions in indoles has been explored. This review describes various approaches of functionalization at the C-2, C-3, C-4 and C-7 position of indoles which comprises arylation, alkenylation, acylation, formylation, alkylation, bisindolyl and cyclization strategies. Also, strategies incorporating N-alkylation/arylation has also been covered. image&lt;/p&gt;

	A catalyst and transition-metal free 1,6-conjugate addition of azobisisobutyronitrile to para-quinone methides for the synthesis of isobutyronitrile containing diarylmethanes has been achieved. This protocol enables the synthesis of isobutyronitrile containing diarylmethanes in good yields and with a broad substrate scope. This is the first example wherein azobisisobutyronitrile has been used as a cyanide source for 1,6-conjugate addition under catalyst and metal-free conditions.&lt;/p&gt;
