36. When heated at 80 °C, the proportion of 6a at low conversion was a little lower than at high conversion, implying some thermal conversion (1-2%) of 4a into 6a. H.J. Shine, E. Gruszecka, W. Subotkowski, M. Brownawell, and J.S. Filippo Jr. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 107 1985 3218

41. A few attempts were reported for the acid-catalyzed condensation of 2,2′-diaminobiphenyls to the carbazoles. However, the reactions usually require fairly high reaction temperatures (>200 °C), resulting in the formation of undesired byproducts. T. Yamato, C. Hideshima, K. Suehiro, M. Tashiro, G.K.S.
