Chemistry of Peri‐condensed pyrroles. Synthesis of 4H‐naphtho[1,4‐def]carbazole. A new route to nitrotriphenylenes

Abstract: Reaction of 1‐nitrotriphenylene (7a) with triethylphosphite (Cadogan reaction) produces 4H‐naphtho[1,4‐def]carbazole, a likely component of fossil fuels. Surprisingly 7a and its 2‐isomer are obtained from treatment of triphenylene with sulfuric acid/trifluoroacetic anhydride in nitromethane. Correlation between ultraviolet spectra and substitution reactions in peri‐condensed pyrroles and thiophenes is presented.

“…Otherwise, it can serve as a nitro-methylating agent in cross-coupling reactions , and conjugate additions under basic conditions. Surprisingly, we observed that the combination of PIFA with a NaX can facilitate nitration instead of cross-coupling (see Scheme S1 in the Supporting Information). To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of nitrations with CH 3 NO 2 , which encouraged us to develop CH 3 NO 2 as an organo-nitrating reagent.…”

“…In the traditional synthetic method, treatment of carbazole with acetic acid or acetamide and anhydrous phosphorus pentoxide or zinc chloride at 150 C provided 4H-benzo[def]carbazole (Scheme 1a) [21]. Besides, calcium oxide was used to react with aminophenanthrene at high temperature which promoted intramolecular cyclization and generated 4H-benzo[def]carbazole (Scheme 1b) [22][23][24][25].…”

“…77 The first reported example of the use of nitromethane as a nitrating reagent was shown by Klemm and co-workers in 1988 during the sulfonylation of polyaromatics. 78 However, this transformation used nitromethane that had been stored in a bottle for 20 years and this makes it is difficult to determine if the nitromethane was the real source of NO 2 .…”
