Copper-Catalyzed Decarboxylative/Click Cascade Reaction: Regioselective Assembly of 5-Selenotriazole Anticancer Agents
摘要:
A simple and efficient Cu-catalyzed decarboxylative/click reaction for the preparation of 1,4-disubstituted 5-arylselanyl-1,2,3-triazoles from propiolic acids, diselenides, and azides has been developed. The mechanistic study revealed that the intermolecular AAC reaction of an alkynyl selenium intermediate occurred. The resulting multisubstituted 5-seleno-1,2,3-triazoles were tested for in vitro anticancer activity by MTT assay, and compounds 4f, 4h, and 4p showed potent cancer cell-growth inhibition activities.
Synthesis of Fully Functionalized 5-Selanyl-1,2,3-triazoles: Copper-Catalysed Three-Component Reaction of Ethynylstibanes, Organic Azides, and Diaryl Diselenides
A Cu‐catalysed three‐component reaction of ethynylstibanes, organic azides, and diaryl diselenides under aerobic conditions leads to the formation of fullysubstituted 5‐selanyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles in moderate to excellent yields. Ethynylstibanes, containing an antimony atom, gave better results than various alkynes containing other typical elements, such as silicon, tin, and tellurium.

An iridium‐catalyzed azide–alkynecycloaddition reaction (IrAAC) of electron‐rich internal alkynes is described. It is the first efficient intermolecular AAC of internal thioalkynes. The reaction exhibits remarkable features, such as high efficiency and regioselectivity, mild reaction conditions, easy operation, and excellent compatibility with air and a broad spectrum of organic and aqueous solvents
