Abstract

Abstract A methodology for the direct use of trimethylsilyl-protected alkynes in the copper (I)- mediated alkyne-azide cycloaddition reaction without the need of a previous deprotection step is reported. This methodology is selective for the trimethylsilyl in front of other silicon- based C (sp)-H protecting groups.
