5-Nitroindazole → 1H-Indazol-5-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-Nitro-1H-indazole (20 mg) was dissolved in methanol (1 ml) and to the solution was added a catalytic amount of palladium/carbon, followed by stirring at room temperature under hydrogen gas atmosphere for 30 minutes. The resulting mixture was diluted with ether, filtered through celite, and then concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 5-amino-1H-indazole (16 mg, 100%).
