Synthesis of 6-Amino-5-cyano-1,4-disubstituted-2(1H)-Pyrimidinones via Copper-(I)-catalyzed Alkyne-azide ‘Click Chemistry’ and Their Reactivity

Synthesis of 6-amino-5-cyano-1,4-disubstituted-2(1H)-pyrimidinones via copper-(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide 'click chemistry' and their reactivity.

In this paper we present the room temperature synthesis of a novel serie of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles 4a-l by employing the (3+2) cycloaddition reaction of pyrimidinones containing alkyne functions with different model azides in the presence of copper sulphate and sodium ascorbate. To obtain the final triazoles, we also synthesized the major precursors 6-amino-5-cyano-1,4-disubstituted-...

Copper-Catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Click Chemistry for Bioconjugation.

The copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction is widely used for the connection of molecular entities of all sizes. A protocol is provided here for the process with biomolecules. Ascorbate is used as reducing agent to maintain the required cuprous oxidation state. Since these convenient conditions produce reactive oxygen species, five equivalents of a copper-binding ligand is used wi...

The Use of Ligands in Copper-catalyzed [3+2] Azide-alkyne Cycloaddition: Clicker than Click Chemistry?

Structural Determinants of Alkyne Reactivity in Copper-Catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Cycloadditions.

This work represents our initial effort in identifying azide/alkyne pairs for optimal reactivity in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions. In previous works, we have identified chelating azides, in particular 2-picolyl azide, as "privileged" azide substrates with high CuAAC reactivity. In the current work, two types of alkynes are shown to undergo rapid CuAAC reactions u...

Synthesis of Dendronized Poly(l-Glutamate) via Azide-Alkyne Click Chemistry

Poly(l-glutamate) (PGlu) was modified with a second-generation dendron to obtain the dendronized polyglutamate, P(Glu-D). Synthesized P(Glu-D) exhibited a degree of polymerization (DPn) of 46 and a 43% degree of dendronization. Perfect agreement was found between the P(Glu-D) expected structure and the results of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and size-exclusion chromatography co...
