Abstract
1-Aryl-2-(2-nitrobenzylidene)hydrazines readily undergo intramolecular amination to afford 1-aryl-1H-indazole derivatives in good yields in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide in N,N-dimethylformamide at 100 °C. Displacement of the nitro group was achieved in the absence of significant electron-withdrawing substituents.
