Abstract
The rapid method for the synthesis of organic azides was achieved by employing azide acceptors such as halides, epoxides and pseudohalides like diazonium salts and aryl boronic acids in hydrotropic media. In extension, the sequential multicomponent reaction of epoxides, azide and alkynes using copper catalysis has been discussed. The reaction proceeds via the in situ generation of azido-alcohol followed by synthesis of chiral β-hydroxytriazoles. This [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of azide and alkyne using copper catalysis serves as a green and efficient protocol in “Click Chemistry”. The nucleophilic addition of azide to epoxide and alkyne-azide cycloaddition is the two simultaneous regioselective click reactions observed in the proposed method.
