Abstract

Abstract A concise, convenient and mild route for the one-pot syntheses of N-aryl-and N- alkyltriazoles in water is reported. The methodology involves the three-component reaction comprising phenylacetylene, sodium azide and aryl/alkyl halide catalyzed by Cu (I) species generated in situ by a redox reaction between FeCl 3 and copper metal. Prominent features of our methodology are incorporation of aryl fluoride to generate N-aryltriazoles, which are ...
