Facile One-Pot Synthesis of 1,2,3-Triazoles Featuring Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Sulfur Functionalized Pendant Arms

Abstract

A practical and efficient one-pot synthesis of novel 1,2,3-triazoles featuring nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur functionalized pendant arms has been developed. The click reaction of mono-propargyl derivatives supported by aniline, thiophenol, and benzyl alcohol, with sodium azide and p-substituted benzyl halogenides, renders a series of N-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles in good yields under mild reaction conditions. The catalyst system was based in Cu(OAc)2 · H2O, sodium L-ascorbate, and 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate, and all reactions were performed in a mixture H2O–ethanol (4:1 v/v). Additionally, the preparation of bis-1,2,3-triazoles supported by di-propargylated aniline was carried out, demonstrating the versatility of the present methodology.
