One-pot synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles from boronic acids in water using Cu(ii)–β-cyclodextrin complex as a nanocatalyst

Abstract

We report here the one-pot synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles of arylboronic acids in water. An efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles via a one-pot reaction of an arylboronic acid with sodium azide in the presence of Cu(2)-β-CD (CD = Cyclodextrin) as a nanocatalyst in water followed by a click cyclization reaction with an alkyne at room temperature in air without any additives. This method is simple, rapid, and high yielding.
