Abstract

Abstract Indazoles that have the structural formula WHEREIN X represents halogen, nitro, -SO2R, cyano, acoyl, acoylamino, aroylamino, alkyl, alkoxy, carboalkoxy, -COR, -CHO, or trihalomethyl; R represents alkylamino, hydroxy, halogen, alkyl, haloalkyl, phenyl, or substituted phenyl wherein the substituent is halogen, alkyl, or nitro; and n represents a number in the range of 1 to 4 are prepared by diazotizing the corresponding substituted o-toluidine in an aqueous mineral acid medium and adding the resulting diazonium salt solution to an aqueous solution containing basic anions, which is maintained at a pH of 4 to 10 and at a temperature of about 10*C. to 100*C. during the addition of the diazonium salt solution, and isolating the resulting indazole.
