Ruthenium-catalyzed cycloaddition of aryl azides and alkynes.
The formation of 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles from aryl azides and alkynes was readily accomplished using [Cp*RuCl]4 catalyst in dimethylformamide. It was also demonstrated that the reaction provided higher yields, cleaner product, and shorter reaction times when carried out under microwave irradiation.
