Abstract

Convenient and environmentally benign procedures have been reported for the synthesis of 1,4,5-trisubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles by the reaction of aryl azides with active methylene compounds in ionic liquid [bmim]BF4 in the presence of l-proline as a catalyst and also in task-specific basic ionic liquid [bmim]OH. The methodologies defined herein avoid the severe conditions as posed by earlier existing methods and proved to be efficient in terms of good yields, operational simplicity, easy workup and short reaction time.
