Several secondary phosphine oxides (SPOs, 2a-2d) as well as 2a-chelated palladium complex 2a_Pd were employed in Catellani type reaction for the synthesis of 1-methyl-9H-carbazole (4) from 2-iodotoluene and N-(2-bromophenyl)acetamide (3). The application of these ligands (2a-2d) and palladium complex (2a_Pd) in this reaction is beneficial in terms of increasing the yield of the major product, 4. An elaborated mechanism was proposed to account for the observation of 4 as well as some side products, 5, 6, 7, and 8, via C-C and C-N bonds formation processes. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier B.V.
