Palladium-catalyzed method for the synthesis of carbazoles via tandem C-H functionalization and C-N bond formation.
The development of a new method for the assembly of unsymmetrical carbazoles is reported. The strategy involves the selective intramolecular functionalization of an arene C-H bond and the formation… Expand
