Procedure

In a stream of argon, 670 g of carbazole, 850 kg of iodobenzene, 20 L of xylene, 460 g of t-BuONa, and palladium acetate (Pd(OAc)2) were loaded, and then the mixture was refluxed for 8 hours. Impurities were filtrated, and then the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and washed with hexane. After that, the washed product was dried. As a result, 820 g of phenylcarbazole were obtained as a white powder. A reaction was performed in the same manner as in the synthesis of Intermediate 1-1 except that phenylcarbazole was used instead of 4-bromobiphenyl. As a result, 650 g of a white powder were obtained. The powder was identified as Intermediate 1-11 by FD-MS analysis.
