Back to basics : A transition‐metal‐free method developed for the synthesis of indazoles involves an inexpensive catalytic system composed of a diamine and K 2 CO 3 . Various ( Z )‐2‐bromoacetophenone tosylhydrazones were converted into indazoles at room temperature in excellent yields (see example; Ts= p ‐toluenesulfonyl). The yield was improved by photoisomerization with UV light when E / Z isomeric mixtures of the starting material were used.
