[Br:1][C:2]1[C:3]([C:9]([OH:11])=O)=[C:4]([CH:6]=[CH:7][CH:8]=1)[NH2:5].[N:12]([O-])=O.[Na+].[O-]S([O-])=O.[Na+].[Na+]>O.Cl>[Br:1][C:2]1[CH:8]=[CH:7][CH:6]=[C:4]2[C:3]=1[C:9]([OH:11])=[N:12][NH:5]2To a mixture of 3-bromo-2-carboxyaniline (6.6 g, 30.6 mmol, see Aust. J. Chem., 1999, 52, 1061) in H2O (28 ml) and HCl (conc., 6 ml) was added a solution of NaNO2 (2.11 g, 30 mmol) in H2O (5 ml) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 minutes then a solution of Na2SO3 (10.4 g, 82.5 mmol) in H2O (28 ml) was added slowly. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours and HCl (conc., 9 ml) was slowly added. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for additional 18 hours, then at 80° C. for 4 hours, and finally cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was basified to dissolve the precipitate and then reacidified. The precipitated 4-Bromo-1H-indazol-3-ol CLXXXIII was filtered and dried in vacuo (yellow powder, 3.19 g, 49% yield).
