Condensations of aromatic carbo-and heterocyclic ketones and aldehydes in methanol gave new chalcones containing carbazole fragments, 1,3-diaryl(9-R-9H-carbazol-3-yl)prop-2-en-1-ones. Some of the synthesized chalcones reacted with guanidine sulfate to produce 2-amino-4,6-diarylpyrimidines that are promising materials for the design of light emitting diodes. Study on electrochemical polymerization of both chalcones and pyrimidines derived therefrom showed that almost all the examined substrates give rise to stable colored conjugated polymer films on the surface of working electrode under conditions of cyclic voltammetry.

A variety of new carbazole‐containing chalcones such as (VII), (XI) and (XII) are synthesized via condensations of aldehydes (V) or (X) with methyl ketones (VI) or (IX), respectively.
