zyl]-2-(6-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-4-indazolyl)phenol (11a). To
a solution of 10a (5.9 g, 0.01 mol) in glacial acetic acid (50
mL), hydrazine hydrate (1.5 g, 0.03 mol) was added. After
stirring at 80ꢁC for 10 h, the mixture was concentrated
in vacuo. To the residue was added water and twice extracted
with ether, washed the organic layer with saturated NaHCO3
solution, subsequently with water and brine, dried over
MgSO4, and evaporated to dryness. The residue could be
recrystallized from ethanol to afford 11a as brown solid; Yield

4-[4-Hydroxy-3-(6-aryl-1H-4-indazolyl)benzyl]-2(6-aryl-
1H-4-indazolyl)phenol (12a–e). To a solution of correspond-
ing compound 11 (0.01 mol) in dry benzene (20 mL), DDQ
(0.03 mol) dissolved in dry benzene (20 mL) was added in
portions. The mixture was heated to reflux and stirred for 5 h
under a nitrogen atmosphere. The precipitated DDQ-H2 was
filtered off and the filtrate was subjected to column chromatog-
raphy on silica gel (60–120 mesh) to afford pure compounds.

sulfonic acid (14a). To a stirred solution of 10b (7.5 g, 0.01
mol) in ethanol (100 mL) and 6 N HCl (14.8 mL, 0.892 mol)
was added 4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl hydrazine 13 (4.1 g,
0.022 mol). The mixture was heated to reflux and stirred for
10 h. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture
was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up with
ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine, dried over
MgSO4, filtered, and evaporated in vacuo to give a solid that
was crystallized from diisopropyl ether (100 mL) to give pyr-
azole 14a as brown solid; Yield 82%; m.p. 222–24ꢁC; IR
