The nitrosation of indoles under slightly acidic conditions and reverse addition conditions leads to the preparation of the corresponding indazole-3-carboxaldehydes in high yields and greatly minimizes side reactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
