Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 2,7-dibromocarbazole (3.0 g, 8.95 mmol), 1-bromo-2-ethylhexane (2.70 g, 13.4 mmol), tetra-n-butylammonium hydrogen sulfide (0.1 g), and NaOH (0.54 g, 13.5 mmol) in acetone (30 mL) was refluxed for 9 h. After the reaction, the acetone was removed under vacuum and the residue was extracted with toluene. The combined organic layer was washed with a saturated NaCl aqueous solution, and dried over MgSO4. After removal of the solvent, the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using hexane as the eluent to afford 2,7-dibromo-9-(2-ethylhexyl)-carbazole as a white powder. Yield: 2.46 g (62.9%). M.P.: 95-97° C.
