Polytriazoles as copper(I)-stabilizing ligands in catalysis

Org Lett. 2004 Aug 19;6(17):2853-5. doi: 10.1021/ol0493094.

Abstract

Polytriazolylamines were synthesized by the copper(I)-catalyzed ligation of azides and alkynes. The C3-symmetric derivative, TBTA, was shown to be a powerful stabilizing ligand for copper(I), protecting it from oxidation and disproportionation, while enhancing its catalytic activity.
