PROCESS FOR PHOTOCATALYTIC ACCEPTOR-FREE DEHYDROGENATION OF HYDROCARBAZOLES AND HYDROINDOLES
-
Paragraph 0064-0065, (2015/09/23)
A process for the photocatalytic acceptor-free dehydrogenation of hydrocarbazoles and hydroindoles is provided, wherein a hydrocarbazole or hydroindole is irradiated in the presence of a catalyst that is a rhodium complex containing organic phosphorus(III) compounds as ligands.
Solvent free selective dehydrogenation of indolic and carbazolic molecules with an iridium pincer catalyst

A previously known iridium POCOP pincer catalyst was found to selectively dehydrogenate the heterocyclic portion of several indolic and carbazolic molecules. These molecules were found to have an "activity window" (172-178 °C) upon which only the heterocyclic ring underwent dehydrogenation. All reactions were run solvent free, yields for selected substrates were excellent, and the products were isolated by either distillation or alumina plug filtration. the Partner Organisations 2014.
