Nocardioides aromaticivorans IC177 is a gram-positive carbazole degrader. The genes encoding carbazole degradation (car genes) were cloned into a cosmid clone and sequenced partially to reveal 19 open reading frames. The car genes were clustered into the carAaCBaBbAcAd and carDFE gene clusters, encoding the enzymes responsible for the degradation of carbazole to anthranilate and 2-hydroxypenta-...

The carbazole-degradative plasmid pCAR1 carries the class II transposon Tn4676, which contains the car and ant genes, essential for conversion of carbazole into anthranilate, and anthranilate into catechol, respectively. In our previous study, DNA rearrangements in pCAR1 were frequently detected in the host Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf0-1 in the presence of carbazole, resulting in the improvement...

A simple m-terphenyl modified carbazole derivative, 9-phenyl-3,6-bis-[1,1';3'1'']terphenyl-5'-yl-9H-carbazole (CzTP) was developed. By using CzTP as a host material, the PHOLEDs showed the maximum power efficiencies (eta(p, max)) of 55 lm W(-1) for blue and 113 lm W(-1) for green, respectively.

[reaction: see text] A series of carbazole/fluorene (CBZm-Fn) hybrids were effectively synthesized through Friedel-Crafts-type substitution of the carbazole rings. These compounds were thermally and morphologically stable host materials for OLED applications. Efficient blue phosphorescent OLEDs were obtained when employing CBZ1-F2 as the host and FIrpic as the guest.

The whole mol-ecule of the title compound, C26H16N2S4, is generated by twofold rotational symmetry. The carbazole skeleton is nearly planar [maximum deviation = 0.054 (5) Å]. In the crystal, aromatic π-π stacking is observed between parallel carbazole ring systems of adjacent mol-ecules, the shortest centroid-centroid distances between pyrrole and benzene rings being 3.948 (3) and 3.751 (3) Å.

Novel indolo[3,2-b]carbazole derivatives and a chromogenic-sensing 5,12-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazole have been synthesized starting from tetra-tert-butylated 6,12-diaryl-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazoles, which were prepared via an efficient tert-butylation of 6,12-diaryl-5,11-dihydroindolo[3,2-b]carbazoles.

The title compound, C(19)H(13)BrFN, was synthesized by N-alkyl-ation of 1-chloro-methyl-4-fluoro-benzene with 3-bromo-9H-carbazole. The carbazole ring system is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation of 0.024 Å for the non-H atoms) and forms a dihedral angle of 88.2 (3)° with the benzene ring.

The title compound, C(15)H(13)NO(2), was synthesized by N-alkyl-ation of methyl bromo-acetate with 9H-carbazole. The carbazole ring system is essentially planar (mean atomic deviation = 0.0346 Å) and makes a dihedral angle of 86.5 (7)° with the methyl acetate group. Weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.

The title compound, C(19)H(14)BrN, was synthesized by the N-alkyl-ation of (chloro-meth-yl)benzene with 3-bromo-9H-carbazole. The carbazole ring system is essentially planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.013 Å) and forms a dihedral angle of 87.1 (2)° with the phenyl ring.
