Synthesis and crystal structure of 9-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazin- 2-yl)-9H-carbazole

Abstract

A carbazole-triazine hybrid was prepared by addition-elimination between carbazole and 2,4,6-trichlorotriazine in the presence of base. The compound shows intensely blue fluorescence both in solution and solid state when irradiated with UVradiation. The structure of (3) was supported by the spectroscopic data and unambiguously confirmed by the single crystal X-ray diffraction data. It was crystallized in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell dimensions a = 20.280(3), b = 8.0726(14), c = 16.005(3) Å, α = γ = 90°, β = 98.947(3)°, V = 2588.3(8) Å3, Z = 8. © 2011 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
