Table 2. H–D Exchange Reaction of Indoles and Carbazole.
D content was calculated based on the 1H NMR spectra of the isolated product.
Isolated yield.
Isolated yield of CD3 ester.
98% ee.
The reaction was conducted in a sealed tube.
>99% ee.
Reactions were performed in a 0.05 M solution.
D content was calculated based on 1H NMR spectroscopy after N-methylation.
After isolating deuterated carbazole (70% average D incorporation), the H–D exchange reaction of this product was performed again.
