J Org Chem. 2020 Mar 6;85(5):3576-3586. doi: 10.1021/acs.joc.9b03285. Epub 2020 Feb 7.

Abstract

A copper-catalyzed decarboxylative cycloaddition of propiolic acids, azides, and arylboronic acids is described. The present reaction provides an efficient and convenient method for the synthesis of various fully substituted 1,2,3-triazoles from readily available starting materials. A possible mechanism is proposed.
