Synthesis of functional materials having carbazole moeity

Carbazole rings are found in a variety of naturally occurring and they are medically active substances. Their biological activity varies widely, from anticancer to anti-inflammatory. Besides biological activities, it has many other uses. It is used as a chemical raw material for paint and plastic production. Moreover, the properties of polymers containing carbazole structure make them versatile photosensitizers for photoreactions and promising candidates for organic photovoltaic devices. Carbazole and polymeric materials containing carbazole structure have attracted the attention of scientists in recent years, as they are very useful materials in many fields. This diversity in the usage areas of carbazole compounds made us think that the synthesis of carbazole-acyl hydrazone and carbazole-oxadiazole compounds will make a great contribution to both the literature and the industry. In the light of these studies, in this study, new carbazole-acyl hydrazone and carbazole-oxadiazole compounds were synthesized, purified and their structures were characterized. Then, electropolymerization of 2 carbazole-acyl hydrazone and 2 carbazole-oxadiazole compounds was successfully carried out.
