Ru-Catalyzed highly site-selective C–H bond arylation of 9-(pyrimidin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole†
Abstract
We describe here an efficient ruthenium-catalyzed C–H bond ortho-arylation of 9-(pyrimidin-2-yl)-9H-carbazole by using boronic acids. This methodology exhibits excellent and high site-selectivity, functional group tolerance and was found to give the desired product in moderate to good yields.
