3-(9H-Carbazol-9-yl)-9H-carbazole
1. Basic Information
Name: 3-(9H-Carbazol-9-yl)-9H-carbazole
Alias: 3,9'-Dicarbazole
CAS No.: 18628-07-4
Molecular Formula: C24H16N2
Molecular Weight: 332.40
Category: Bicarbazole aromatic heterocyclic intermediate for organic optoelectronic materials
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: Off-white to pale light yellow crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless heterocyclic solid
- Solubility: Soluble in THF, chloroform, toluene, dichlorobenzene; slightly soluble in hot ethanol and methanol; insoluble in water and aliphatic alkanes
- Melting Range: 228–232 °C
- Hygroscopy: Non-hygroscopic under normal ambient humidity
- Aqueous Property: Highly lipophilic neutral nitrogen heterocycle, no solubility in pure water
Chemical Properties
- Molecular Structure: Two carbazole rings linked via N9 of one carbazole and C3 of another carbazole, containing two aromatic N-H-free nitrogen sites
- Aromatic Substitution: The conjugated bicarbazole skeleton supports halogenation, formylation and electrophilic substitution to prepare functional optoelectronic monomers
- Cross-Coupling Reactivity: Unsubstituted aromatic carbon sites can undergo Suzuki, Buchwald-Hartwig coupling for constructing long conjugated hole-transporting materials
- Thermal Stability: High thermal decomposition temperature; stable below 200 °C without decomposition, suitable for OLED vacuum evaporation processing
- Photostability: Moderately sensitive to strong UV irradiation; prolonged exposure generates trace oxidized impurities and darkens powder
- Compatibility: Good miscibility with common aromatic organic solvents and resin monomers; incompatible with strong oxidants, concentrated strong acid and heavy metal catalysts

Safety Warning
Mild irritant aromatic bicarbazole powder. Dust irritates eyes, respiratory tract and skin; long-term skin contact may induce slight allergic dermatitis for sensitive persons. All operations must be performed inside ventilated chemical fume hoods with dust respirators, chemical-resistant gloves and full-face safety goggles. Airtight dark storage is required to prevent photooxidation discoloration. Waste liquid needs organic solvent recovery and neutralization treatment; solid waste is classified as organic hazardous waste and must be disposed by licensed professional hazardous waste treatment facilities.
