A highly efficient and eco-friendly one-pot microwave assisted method for synthesis of 1-H-indazole and 1-phenyl1H-indazoles is developed. Microwave heating of salicylaldehyde and hydrazine hydrates yielded the aryl hydrazones which further cyclized to afford indazoles. Microwave assisted method results in good to excellent yields of indazoles than the conventional method.
