Abstract

Testing the waters: An efficient dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) catalyzed approach to the synthesis of the title compounds in water is reported. Furthermore, upon cleavage of the pyrrolidine group from the trans-3-alkenyl-2-pyrrolidine-2H-indazoles with Zn in CH3COOH, trans-3-alkenyl-1H-indazoles are obtained in good to excellent yields.
