Amine-catalyzed [3+2] Huisgen cycloaddition strategy for the efficient assembly of highly substituted 1,2,3-triazoles

An enamine-catalyzed strategy has been utilized to fully promote the Huisgen [3+2] cycloaddition with a broad spectrum of carbonyl compounds and azides, thereby permitting the efficient assembly of a vast pool of highly substituted 1,2,3-triazoles.

This approach might be manipulated to access more useful and sophisticated heterocyclic compounds. Most significantly, the reaction process exhibits complete regioselectivity, with the formation of only one regioisomer.
