High hydrogen pressure pyrolysis (hydropyrolysis) was performed on samples of solvent extracted Kimmeridge Clay Formation source rock with a maturity equivalent to ca. 0.35% vitrinite re ̄ectance. We describe the types and distributions of organic nitrogen compounds in the pyrolysis products (hydropyrolysates) using GCMS. Compounds identi®ed included alkyl-substituted indoles, carbazoles, benzoc...

Abstract Mechanoluminescence (ML) is the emission of light caused by mechanical stresses on solid, usually crystalline substances. Recently, it has been observed that a specific class organic crystals, N‐alkyl carbazoles, have both low melting points and high proclivity for self‐assembly, making them easily renewable long‐term device applications. To develop new carbazole‐based ML materials app...

Cu(II)-catalyzed cross-coupling of various aryl boronic acids with 5 and 6-amino indazoles has resulted in (arylamino)-indazoles. These (arylamino)-indazoles have been utilized in synthesizing medicinally important pyrazole-fused carbazoles via Pd(II)-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC). This combined N-arylation/C-H arylation strategy has been successfully applied to the regioselect...

Novel indolo[3,2-b]carbazole derivatives and a chromogenic-sensing 5,12-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazole have been synthesized starting from tetra-tert-butylated 6,12-diaryl-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazoles, which were prepared via an efficient tert-butylation of 6,12-diaryl-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazoles.

Indole synthesis by a gold(I)-catalyzed intermolecular formal [4+2] reaction between 1,3-diynes and pyrroles has been developed. This reaction involves the hydroarylation of 1,3-diynes with pyrroles followed by an intramolecular hydroarylation to give the 4,7-disubstituted indoles. This reaction can also be applied to the synthesis of carbazoles when indoles are used as the nucleophiles instead...

We developed a simple and efficient strategy to access N-vinyl secondary amines of various naturally occurring materials using readily available solid acetylene reagents (calcium carbide, KF, and KOH). Pyrrole, pyrazole, indoles, carbazoles, and diarylamines were successfully vinylated in good yields. Cross-linked and linear polymers were synthesized from N-vinyl carbazoles through free radical...

A set of carbazole substituted BODIPYs 2a-2c were designed and synthesized by the Pd-catalysed Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction. The effects of variation in the donor strength of various carbazoles were investigated by photophysical, electrochemical and computational studies. The electronic absorption spectra of BODIPYs 2a and 2c show charge transfer bands, which show red shift in polar solv...

Z. Naturforsch. 59b, 106 – 108 (2004); received August 4, 2003 2-Benzylidene-1-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles (1a – e) obtained from the corresponding 1oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles on reaction with malononitrile in dry benzene with sodium hydride afforded 3-cyano-5,6-dihydro-2-ethoxy-4-phenyl-pyrido[2,3-a]carbazoles (2a – e) in good yields. A plausible mechanism for the formation of the t...
