Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To 4-methoxy-N-(4-nitrophenyl)aniline (785 mg, 3.2 mmol) in 5 mL of AcOH was added Pd(OAc)2 (1.43 g, 6.4 mmol). The mixture was heated at 100° C. for 15 h under air atmosphere and cooled to rt and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up in EtOAc (100 mL) and washed with NaHCO3 (2×100 mL) and water (100 mL). After solvent removal, the crude was purified with chromatography (hexane/EtOAc) to afford 3-methoxy-6-nitro-9H-carbazole as a orange solid (495 mg, 64%).
