Synthesis of Pharmacological Relevant 1,2,3-Triazole and Its Analogues-A Review.

In this review, authors focus mostly on the various synthetic strategies developed so far for 1,2,3- triazole scaffold and its derivatives via different approaches such as metal-free, metal assisted or bimetallic. A brief overview of applications of the very important 1,2,3-triazole scaffold along with pharmacological activity is also discussed. Synthetic strategies are updated until June 2020.

Copper-catalyzed synthesis of 2-aminophenyl benzothiazoles: a novel approach.

A novel, convenient and efficient protocol for the construction of various 2-aminophenyl benzothiazoles by domino intra- and intermolecular C-N cross-coupling reactions of arylisothioureas with aryl iodides using an inexpensive, air stable and readily available copper catalyst is described. The arylisothioureas were obtained from thiourea via copper promoted desulfurization followed by nucleophilic substitution. In addition, the reactivity of arylhalides and the reaction mechanism have also been studied. The protocol features operational simplicity and a broad substrate scope.
