Procedure

A solution containing 51.8 g (0.25 mole) 6-azidoveratraldehyde (Example XII), 26.0 g (0.28 mole) aniline, 4 ml glacial acetic acid, and 300 ml dimethylformamide was stirred at 90°-100° for 1 hr, then refluxed for 1 hr until the gaseous evolution was complete. After the mixture was cooled and poured slowly in 1.5 l. iced water, the product was filtered, washed with two 150 ml portions cold water, and air dried to give 50 g of crude indazole, m.p. 130°-138°. Recrystallization from ethyl acetate - hexane followed by ethyl acetate gave 26 g (41%) of the product, m.p. 149°-152°. Recrystallization from ethyl acetate - hexane gave the analytical sample, m.p. 149°-152°.
