  • Title: Synthesis of 1-Cyanoalkynes and Their Ruthenium(II)-Catalyzed Cycloaddition with Organic Azides to Afford 4-Cyano-1,2,3-triazoles.
    Author: Liu P, Clark RJ, Zhu L.
    Journal: J Org Chem; 2018 May 04; 83(9):5092-5103. PubMed ID: 29630830.
    Abstract:
    A new method to convert terminal alkynes under relatively mild conditions to 1-cyanoalkynes using in situ formed cyanogen is described. 1-Cyanoalkynes have a higher reactivity than terminal alkynes in the ruthenium(II)-catalyzed regiospecific azide-alkyne cycloaddition to afford 4-cyano-1,2,3-triazoles. A mechanistic proposal different from the one that terminal alkynes adopt under the same reaction conditions is proposed. This work provides a new and convenient two-step sequence to prepare 4-cyano-1,2,3-triazoles from terminal alkynes and organic azides.
