Relatively mild and highly efficient CuI-catalyzed N-arylation procedures for nitrogen-containing heterocycles (e.g., imidazoles, benzimidazoles, pyrroles, pyrazoles, indoles, triazoles, etc.) with aryl and heteroaryl halides have been developed. The protocols can be performed easily and tolerate a number of functional groups, such as ester, nitrile, nitro, ketone, free hydroxyl, and free prima...

The enantioselective synthesis of novel C-linked spiroacetal-triazoles 10 is reported. The key step involves reaction of acetylenic spiroacetal 11 with several azides by the Copper-Catalysed Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition (CuAAC). The biologically privileged spiroacetal scaffold 11 was prepared from silyl-protected Weinreb amide 19 using several reliable Grignard additions and a highly diastereosel...

The Rh(II)-catalyzed formal [3+2] and [3+3] cycloadditions of 1-tosyl 1,2,3-triazoles with 2H-azirines have been developed, which enable the efficient synthesis of polysubstituted 3-aminopyrroles and 1,2-dihydropyrazines, respectively. The reported [3+2] cycloaddition represents the first application of 1-sulfonyl 1,2,3-triazole as a [2C]-component in relevant cycloaddition reactions.

Trisubstituted 5-stibano-1H-1,2,3-triazoles were synthesized in moderate to excellent yields by the Cu-catalyzed [3 + 2] cycloaddition of a ethynylstibane with organic azides in the presence of CuBr (5 mol %) under aerobic conditions. The reaction of 5-stibanotriazole with HCl, I2, and NOBF4 afforded 1-benzyl-4-phenyltriazole, 1-benzyl-5-iodo-4-phenyltriazole, and a pentavalent organoantimony c...

C-H arylations were accomplished with a user-friendly heterogeneous palladium catalyst in the biomass-derived γ-valerolactone (GVL) as an environmentally-benign reaction medium. The user-friendly protocol was characterized by ample substrate scope and high functional group tolerance in the C-H arylation of 1,2,3-triazoles, and the palladium catalyst could be recycled and reused in the C-H activ...

Silver acetylides and organic azides react under copper(I) catalysis to afford 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles. Mechanistic studies implicate a process involving transmetallation to copper acetylides prior to cycloaddition. This work demonstrates that silver acetylides serve as suitable precursors for entry into copper-mediated coupling reactions. This methodology allows the incorporation of ...

Herein, we describe a one-pot protocol for the synthesis of a novel series of polycyclic triazole derivatives. Transition metal-catalyzed decarboxylative CuAAC and dehydrogenative cross coupling reactions are combined in a single flask and achieved good yields of the respective triazoles (up to 97% yield). This methodology is more convenient to produce the complex polycyclic molecules in a simp...

N-Sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles reacted with alkynes in the presence of a nickel(0)/phosphine catalyst to give substituted pyrroles, with the extrusion of molecular nitrogen; the triazole moiety isomerised to an alpha-imino diazo species, and the denitrogenative addition to nickel(0) was followed by the insertion of alkynes and reductive elimination.

The reaction of 1-alkynes with acyl azides in the presence of [Tpm(*,Br)Cu(NCMe)]BF(4) [Tpm(*,Br) = tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-bromopyrazolyl)methane] as the catalyst provides 2,5-oxazoles in moderate to high yields. This is a novel transformation of the CuAAC type that constitutes a significant variation of the commonly observed [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction to yield 1,2,3-triazoles.
