Reaction Steps

3-(4-Pyridyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]indazole (100 mg, compound commercially available from Aldrich) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (5-10 ml) with warming and then 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (1.25 molar equivalents of 70-75% pure material) was added. The mixture was heated at 55-60° C. for 4 hours. A precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with tetrahydrofuran and then ether to give 4-(4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]indazol-3-yl)pyridine 1-oxide.
