Abstract

Various N-aryl-1H-indazoles and benzimidazoles were synthesized from common arylamino oximes in good to excellent yields depending upon the base used in the reaction. Triethylamine promoted the formation of benzimidazoles, whereas 2-aminopyridine promoted the formation of N-arylindazoles.
