Many 1,2,4-triazoles are of biological interest, 1 and as a consequence, a number of synthetic methods have been developed to construct this ring system. 2 To date, there have been no viable one-pot convergent syntheses reported. We wish to communicate our initial work for an efficient one-pot synthesis of substituted 1,2,4-triazoles 1, employing readily available starting materials. ... We envisaged that substituted 1,2,4-triazoles 1 could be obtained from the ...
