Carbazole Usage And Synthesis
Introduction
Carbazole and its derivatives are a class of important nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds possessing various unique properties and biological activity.
Carbazole is a colorless small scale crystal, insoluble in water and inorganic acid, slightly soluble in ethanol, ether, acetone, benzene (in high temperature), soluble in chloroform, glacial acetic acid, carbon disulfide, pyridine and furfural, etc. It has intense fluorescence and prolonged phosphorescence under ultraviolet light.
Extraction
Sulfuric acid method
Dissolve crude anthracene in chlorobenzene or other solvents to remove soluble phenanthrenes, quinones, etc. Insoluble anthracene and carbazoles are then reacted with concentrated sulfuric acid, and then carbazole sulfate is generated departing from the anthracene. The carbazole sulfate is hydrolyzed, filtered and dried to obtain carbazole.
Solvent-rectification method
Dissolve crude anthracene with heavy benzene, and remove soluble phenanthrene, quinone and other substances. Insoluble anthracene and carbazole are rectified in a rectification tower to obtain a mixture containing 85 to 90% of carbazole with a yield of 65%.
Pyridine solvent method
Dissolve crude anthracene with heavy benzene, and remove soluble phenanthrene, quinone and other substances. Then pyridine is used as a solvent to filter off insoluble anthracene at 90°C, and the filtrate is then crystallized to obtain crude carbazole. The crude carbazole can be treated with chlorobenzene or other solvents to obtain carbazole with yield of 97 to 99%.
Production
a. Graebe-Ullmann:
Diazotization from amino diphenylamine, and nitrogen gas heated off to generate carbazole. Reported by Graebe and Ullmann in 1896.
b. Bucherer:
Co-thermal reaction of aryl hydrazine and naphthol in the presence of sodium bisulfite. Reported by Bucherer in 1904.
c. Borsche Drechsel:
Hydrazone is synthesized by condensation of Benzoquinone and cyclohexanone, and the latter cyclized to tetrahydrocarbazole under acidic conditions and then catalyzed by dehydrogenation to generate carbazole. Reported by Drechsel and Borsche in 1868 and 1904 respectively.
Thanks to the development of the catalytic dehydrogenation method, the Borsche method has become a carbazole synthetic route with simple operation, mild conditions, low cost and high yield, and has a high industrial production value.
Because of its unique structure and physicochemical properties, carbazole has aroused great interest among researchers. In recent years, novel monoand poly-substituted carbazole derivatives have been found to have good anti-tumor and anti-convulsant activities, showing broad application prospects. The demand for carbazole and its derivatives has been increasing. In the last decade of the 20th century, a large number of novel precious metals and transition metal catalysts have been used in the synthesis of carbazoles and their derivatives, which greatly enriched the synthetic methods and lay the foundation of synthesizing more complex carbazole derivatives. Nowadays, not only carbazole, but tens of thousands of carbazole derivatives are synthesized by new methods, and are widely used in the pharmaceutical and dye industries.
Chemical Properties
In the laboratory method, the ring-closure dehydrogenation of o-aminobiphenyl is made from ammonia or chlorobenzene. In the industrial production method, 90% of the world's carbazole is obtained from coal tar; it can also be synthesized from o-aminobiphenyl, and then purified by recrystallization from xylene. (1) Synthesis method: 1-phenyl-1,2,3-benzotriazole is prepared by using o-aminodiphenylamine as raw material and treated with nitrous acid. After heating, nitrogen is lost to form carbazole. (2) Sulfuric acid method: Dissolve the crude anthracene with chlorobenzene or other solvents. The phenanthrene, fluorene and other substances in the crude anthracene are separated from anthracene and carbazole due to insolubility. Anthracene and carbazole are added to sulfuric acid for reaction. Then it forms carbazole sulfate with sulfuric acid and separates from anthracene. After hydrolyzing carbazole sulfate, the finished product is obtained by filtration and drying. (3) Solvent-rectification method: The crude anthracene is dissolved in the heavy benzene (160~200℃) by-product of coking, and the phenanthrene, fluorene and other substances in the crude anthracene are separated from anthracene and carbazole. High-temperature rectification is carried out in the distillation tower, and after one rectification, a product containing 85% to 90% of carbazole can be obtained, and the yield is 65%.
Chemical Properties
white crystals or light brown powder
Uses
Carbazole and its derivatives are widely used as an intermediate in synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, pigments and other organic compounds.?carbazole is also used in luminescence chemistry as a photosensitizing and additional charge transport material. Carbazole structure is a motif in pharmaceuticals such as carvedilol used to treat high blood pressure and to prevent cardiac arrhythmias and angina.
Uses
Intermediate in production of dyes and UVsensitive photographic plates.
Uses
Important dye intermediate. Used in making photographic plates sensitive to ultraviolet light. Reagent for lignin, carbohydrates, and formaldehyde.
Application
Carbazole can be used to produce dyes, pigments, photoconductors, photosensitive materials, special inks, etc. The pigment produced with it is permanent purple RL, which is widely used in the coloring of automobile topcoat and high temperature resistant plastics, and has the advantages of high temperature resistance and ultraviolet light resistance. The dyestuffs sulphur vat blue RNX and Haichang blue produced with it have excellent fastness indicators, especially the fastness to chlorine bleaching. The blue varieties include carbazole IDM, carbazole LR, carbazole LB, and carbazole L3B. , the black varieties have carbazole black D. It also produces carbazole bisoxazine violet, a blue-violet pigment used in coatings, printing inks, carbon paper, and more. Carbazole is used in the production of sulfide reduced blue RNX, direct lightfast blue FFRL, FFGL, etc. It can also make leather, N-vinylcarbazole plastics, pesticides and insecticides tetranitrocarbazole, chlorinated carbazole, and UV-sensitive photographic dry films. In addition, carbazole has been increasingly used in the development of emerging optoelectronic new materials. The use of carbazole can prepare organic nonlinear optics (NLO) materials, organic electroluminescence (OEL) materials, photorefractive materials, containing Bifunctional system of carbazole chromophore, carbazole-containing photorefractive small molecular glass, etc.

The precipitate is filtered off, washed with a little water, dried, recrystallised from *benzene and then from pyridine/*benzene [Feldman et al. J Am Chem Soc 73 4341 1951]. It has also been recrystallised from EtOH or toluene, sublimed in vacuum, zone-refined, and purified by TLC.
