Abstract

In the absence of a steric directing group, iridium-catalyzed C–H borylation of N-protected indazoles occurs rapidly and selectively at C-3 and the resulting boronate esters can be utilized in a range of downstream conversions. The functional group tolerance of the iridium-catalyzed C–H borylation reaction enables simple and efficient multidirectional syntheses of substituted indazoles to be realized.
