A novel catalytic one-pot synthesis of carbazoles via consecutive amination and C-H activation

Chem Commun (Camb). 2002 Oct 21:(20):2310-1. doi: 10.1039/b207712b.

Abstract

Sequential palladium catalysed amination and C-H activation reactions occur between 2-chloro-N-alkylated anilines and aryl bromides to give carbazoles in one pot.
