Abstract
The use of blocked (masked) N-isocyanate precursors enables the formation of indazolones by Friedel-Crafts cyclization. Substrate synthesis has also been improved using a copper-catalyzed arylation of phenyl carbazates with pentavalent bismuth reagents that is compatible with the hemilabile OPh blocking group.
