The multistep flow synthesis of vinyl azides and their application in the synthesis of vinyltriazoles is reported. The synthesis relies on a stable polymer-bound equivalent of iodine azide that serves to carry out 1,2-functionalization of alkenes in a telescope flow protocol. The intermediate 2-iodo azides are subjected to a DBU-mediated polymer-supported elimination step yielding vinyl azides ...

The first achievement of the 2022 Chemistry Nobel Prize awardees, Sharpless in particular, was a conceptual nature and consisted proposal click chemistry concept, together with its placement broader theoretical frame. In second phase, both Meldal established copper(I)-catalyzed conditions that allowed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to be recognized as reaction, which broadly employed all fie...

Multivalent dendrimeric peptides were synthesized via a microwave-assisted Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between azido peptides and dendrimeric alkynes in yields ranging from 46 to 96%.

Biohybrid amphiphiles have been prepared from terminal azide functionalised polystyrene and an alkyne functionalised peptide or protein via a Cu(I) catalysed Huisgen [3 + 2] dipolar cycloaddition reaction.

Click chemistry has been utilized to access 2,6-bis(1-aryl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)pyridines (BTPs) as versatile extended heteroaromatic building blocks for their exploitation in supramolecular chemistry, in particular foldamer and ligand design. In addition to their high-yielding synthesis using Cu(I)-catalyzed Huisgen-type 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions the formed triazole moieties constitute...

The aryne [3 + 2] cycloaddition process with pyridinium imides breaks the aromaticity of the pyridine ring. By equipping the imide nitrogen with a sulfonyl group, the intermediate readily eliminates a sulfinate anion to restore the aromaticity, leading to the formation of pyrido[1,2-b]indazoles. The scope and limitation of this reaction are discussed. As an extension of this chemistry, N-tosyli...

The synthesis of three acetylene functionalized BODIPY dyes is described. These dyes are used to fluorescently modify an azido functionalized epoxomicin analogue employing the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, resulting in a panel of fluorescent epoxomicin derived proteasome probes.

The 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reactions are the classic reaction in modern synthetic organic chemistry. The concept of these reactions was introduced by Huisgen and his co-workers in the early 1960’s. 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition reactions are simple but powerful tool for the construction of five membered heterocycles such as isoxazoles, isoxazolines, pyrazoles, pyrazolones, 1,2,4-oxadiazolines et...

The thermal Huisgen cycloaddition reaction is a new and efficient process to crosslink electro-optic polymers, since it leads to an effective increase of the thermal alignment stability of the NLO chromophores.

A Th-symmetrical C60 hexakis-adduct bearing 12 peripheral azide groups has been prepared and used to produce functionalized derivatives by the copper mediated Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides and alkynes.
