Abstract A Pd(II)-catalyzed acetoxylation of 2H-indazoles with phenyliodine (III) diacetate (PIDA) has been successfully developed. Notably, pharmacophore 2H-indazole was utilized as an inherent directing group to access ortho-acetoxylated arylindazoles in moderate to high yields. The representative acetoxylated indazole could further undergo hydrolysis to afford the corresponding hydroxylated product.
