title: Amino-directed Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H activation leading to one-pot synthesis of N-H carbazoles.
abstract: One-pot synthesis: An efficient amino-directed one-pot synthesis of N-H carbazoles from unprotected 2-aminobiaryl compounds is reported. The free amino unit acts as both a directing group for ortho C-H activation and a functional group for construction of an N-heterocyclic ring (see scheme).
