A series of doubly-propargylated N-methylcarbazole and carbazole derivatives were synthesized in good to excellent isolated yields in (bmim)PF6 using triflic acid (10 mol %). The use of bismuth nitrate (20 mol %) instead of triflic acid allowed stepwise propargylation employing two different propargylic alcohols, to prepare mixed bis-propargylated carbazoles. Simple product isolation, mild reaction conditions, and repeated recycling and reuse of (bmim)PF6 are added advantages of this IL-mediated synthetic method. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
