The cooling bath was removed following the addition of NaNO2, stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and then recooled to 0° C. before addition of SnCl2.2H2O (573 mg, 2.49 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour before dilution with water. The solids were collected by vacuum filtration to afford 5-bromo-7-chloro-3-methyl-1H-indazole (130 mg, 64%).
