Wj. Lao et al., Microwave-assisted rapid preparation of substituted carbazole-9-acetic andpropionic acids and their absorption and fluorescence spectra, MONATS CHEM, 131(7), 2000, pp. 803-811
A rapid one-pot synthesis of substituted carbazole-9-acetic and -propionic
acids under microwave irradiation is described. N-Alkylation and hydrolysis
was carried out in DMF without catalyst. The absorption and fluorescence s
pectroscopic characteristics of the title compounds are discussed.
