%X 2-, 3- and 4-Pivaloylamino derivatives of dibenzofuran &#91;compounds (5), (4) and (6), respectively&#93; and analogous 3-, 2- and 1-substituted derivatives of 9-methylcarbazole &#91;compounds (8), (7) and (9), respectively&#93; were subjected to lithiation at 0&#x02DA;C and subsequent reaction with dimethylformamide. Aldehyde formation took place at positions &#945; to &#948; to the heteroatom as follows: &#945; for (4) and (7); &#948; for (5); &#948; and &#946; (3 : 1) for (8); and &#945; &#8242; for (6). No formylation occurred with (9).
