- % yields. para-Amino- and boronic acid-substituted benzamides did not react. While meta-bromo-substituted benzamide gave 2j in 84% yield, ortho-bromination resulted in a diminished yield of 2k (55%). We obtained 3,5-disubstituted N-acyl carbazoles 2l and 2m in 91% and 88% yields. The same disubstitution

- synthesis began with the generation of substituted 2-bromo-1-aminonaphthalenes 9 and 10 (Scheme 6). After α-bromination of tetralones 1 and 2, intermediates 3 and 4 underwent elimination/aromatization with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) to afford 2-bromo-1-naphthols 5 and 6 in fairly good yield
