The Three-Component Synthesis of 4-Sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles via a Sequential Aerobic Copper-Catalyzed Sulfonylation and Dimroth Cyclization

4-Sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazole scaffolds possess promising bioactivities and applications as anion binders. However, these structures remain relatively unexplored and efficient synthetic procedures for their synthesis remain desirable. A practical room-temperature, aerobic copper-catalyzed three-componen...
