A General Proline‐Catalyzed Synthesis of 4,5‐Disubstituted N‐Sulfonyl‐1,2,3‐Triazoles from 1,3‐Dicarbonyl Compounds and Sulfonyl Azide

An efficient proline‐catalyzed synthesis of 4,5‐disubstituted‐N‐sulfonyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles has been accomplished from 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds and sulfonyl azides. The developed reaction is suitable for various symmetrical and unsymmetrical 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds, tolerates various functional groups and affords 4,5‐disubstituted‐N‐sulfonyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles in good yield with excellent regioselectivity. Rhodium‐catalyzed denitrogenative functionalization of 4,5‐disubstituted‐N‐sulfonyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles further demonstrates their utility in organic synthesis.
