"Click"-capture, ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), release: facile triazolation utilizing ROMP-derived oligomeric phosphates

Soluble, high-load ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP)-derived oligomeric triazole phosphates (OTP) are reported for application as efficient triazolating reagents of nucleophilic species. Utilizing a "Click"-capture, ROMP, release protocol, the efficient and purification-free, direct triazolation of N-, O-, and S-nucleophilic species was successfully achieved. A variety of OTP derivatives were rapidly synthesized as free-flowing solids on a multigram scale from commercially available materials.
