Abstract
Either trifluoromethanesulfonic acid or copper(II) triflate promote general and selective procedures for the N2-alkylation of 1H-indazoles and 1H-azaindazoles with various primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidates to afford the corresponding 2-alkyl-2H-indazoles/azaindazoles.
