The t-BuONa-promoted method enables the site-selective silylation of 2H-indazoles, resulting in the synthesis of silylated 1H-indazoles and 2H-indazoles controlled by substituents. The use of SEM as a protecting group allows for the deprotection of N-SEM 2H-indazoles and their conversion into silylated 1H-indazoles, thus controlling the site-selective silylation. This protocol demonstrates broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance, with preliminary experimental studies suggesting the involvement of silyl radicals.
Herein, we report a t-BuONa-promoted method for the site-selective silylation of 2H-indazoles. In our system, the selective silylation of 2H-indazoles to access silylated 1H-indazoles and 2H-indazoles is controlled by substituents. Using SEM ((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl) as a protecting group, N-SEM 2H-indazoles can be readily deprotected by the base and converted to silylated 1H-indazoles, thus controlling the site-selective silylation. Moreover, this protocol shows broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. Preliminary experimental studies suggest that silyl radicals are involved in the reaction.
