The unique NH unit of carbazole molecule is an anion recognition point, its derivatives may have superior properties. Structurally, carbazole is two benzene rings and a pyrrole ring, also known as dibenzopyrrole, 9-nitrofluorene, and 9-azabene. It has a double symmetry axis, and has a large conjugate plane, with a large range of pi electrons, and thus has a good spectral signal. |

Carbazole has the advantages of high temperature resistance and UV resistance, and is widely used in automotive topcoats and heat-resistant plastics. Carbazole derivatives are monomeric polymers with excellent thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, ion exchange and other physical properties. Therefore, the synthesis of carbazole and its derivatives is one of the focuses of current research. In addition, carbazole has strong thermal stability and photochemical stability, the structure of carbazole is easy to be modified, and the carbazole ring is easy to form stable cations. Carbazole also has good transport ability and cheap raw materials, carbazole derivatives are widely used in the field of polymer materials. Carbazole and its derivatives are widely used in fuel, pigment, photoconductive materials, medicine, ion and molecular recognition industries in China, carbazole also has good hole transport ability and cheap raw materials. Carbazole derivatives are widely used in the field of polymer materials. It has been reported by various substituents to form luminescent materials, proving the importance of carbazole and its derivatives in the field of photoconductive materials.

| production method | at present, the domestic production method of carbazole is crude anthracene as raw material, generally does not produce purified anthracene, economic benefits are poor. The method is sulfuric acid extraction to form a carbazole sulfate salt solution, and then back-washed with ammonia to precipitate carbazole. Jiangsu Dafeng Chemical Plant used this method, has been discontinued, the reason is:(1) the purity of the product is low. Containing a large number of impurities such as acridine, purity of less than 90%. (2) can not produce refined anthracene, no competitive. (3) the requirements for the material of the equipment are high, and the corrosion is serious. (4) the discharge of wastewater is large and the pollution is serious. It has been tested abroad to produce carbazole by KOH melting method, but it has never been put into industrial production. The method of synthesizing carbazole has also been tested abroad. The method is O-aminobiphenyl ring-closing dehydrogenation and the starting material is ammonia or chlorobenzene. The advantage of this method is that the raw materials are easily available, and the disadvantage is that there is no market competitiveness, because:(1) the synthesis route is long and the reaction steps are many. Each step of the reaction requires complex pre-and post-treatment, separation equipment and operating costs are particularly high. (2) The conversion rate is low. Most reactions are accompanied by side reactions, with low final conversion due to the long route. (3) the amount of waste treatment is large, and the cost of environmental protection is high. From the current market share, the main source of carbazole or coal tar (anthracene oil). Major carbazole producers in the world, such as RUTGERS in Germany, DEIA in the Czech Republic, and JORYU in Japan, are all co-produced with anthracene and carbazole. Carbazole is commercially extracted from coal tar. The raw material to be extracted is the I-anthracene oil fraction in the continuous distillation of tar, the initial distillation point is 300 ° C., the distillate amount before 350 ° C. Is 95%, and the yield of I-anthracene oil accounts for 12-14% of tar. After cooling the I anthracene oil for crystallization, vacuum filtration or spin filtration to remove part of the oil, it contains 25-30% of anthracene, 20-25% of carbazole and about 30% of phenanthrene. Phenanthrene is easily soluble in oil, and Phenanthrene is separated from anthracene and carbazole by taking advantage of this property. There are two methods to separate anthracene and carbazole: 1. The distillation separation method uses the difference of boiling point from carbazole (the boiling point of anthracene is 340.7 ℃, the boiling point of carbazole is 355 ℃), and uses an emulsion column with a column efficiency equivalent to 40 theoretical trays for distillation, and the reflux ratio is 19:1, industrial anthracene containing an average of 85% of anthracene can be obtained by cutting off a fraction having a column top temperature of 310-344 ° C., and then industrial carbazole containing about 85% of carbazole can be obtained by cutting off a carbazole fraction having a temperature of 348-355 ° C. 2. The potassium melting method uses the characteristic that the potassium melt of carbazole is insoluble in oil and forms precipitate. After the crude anthracene is heated and melted, the Flake caustic potash is added to separate the potassium compound of carbazole, the crude carbazole is hydrolyzed in a hydrolysis tank, and the resultant crude carbazole is separated from the alkali solution by a centrifuge, washed with water and purged with steam to obtain the crude carbazole. After the refined carbazole is dried, sublimation is carried out at 180-240 ° C., and recrystallization is carried out with xylene to obtain a commercial carbazole having a purity of 95-98%. In addition, carbazole can also be synthesized from O-aminobiphenyl. |
