Mn(III)-Mediated C-H Phosphorylation of Indazoles with Dialkyl Phosphites

A direct and efficient Mn(III) acetate-mediated phosphorylation of 2H-indazoles with dialkyl phosphites has been achieved under mild reaction conditions. A series of phosphorylated products with a wide range of functional groups were obtained in moderate to good yields. A radical mechanism has been proposed for the present protocol.
