The structures of three NH-indazoles (3-methyl, 3-trifluoromethyl and 3-trifluoromethyl-4,5,6,7tetrafluoroindazoles) have been determined by X-ray crystallography. These three compounds, together with 3-methyl-4,5,6,7-tetrafluoroindazole, whose X-ray structure could not be determined, have been studied using multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, including solid-state CPMAS. They all are 1H-tautomers. In the crystal, 3-methyl-1H-indazole forms hydrogen bonded dimers, whereas 3-trifluoromethyl-1H-indazole and 3-trifluoromethyl-4,5,6,7tetrafluoro-1H-indazole crystallize as catemers. These catemers are chiral space group P3 2. They are the first examples of indazoles crystallizing in the form of helices of threefold screw axis. Attempts at rationalizing this behavior on the basis of supramolecular interactions (hydrogen bonds and aromatic interactions) and GIAO calculations are discussed. The present paper focuses on the four related 1H-indazoles 6-9 depicted in Scheme 2. Scheme 1 Indazoles and a 3-trifluoromethylpyrazole of biological relevance.
