title: Toward polynuclear Ru-Cu catalytic dehydrogenative C-N bond formation, on the reactivity of carbazoles.
abstract: The cooperative action of Ru and Cu catalysts enables direct polynuclear C-H and N-H activation for the dehydrogenative N-carbazolation of carbazoles, selectively at the C1 position. Initial mechanistic experiments are presented and discussed.
