Design and synthesis of 1,2-dihydroquinoline/chromene fused sugar triazole frameworks by copper-catalyzed one-pot click and intramolecular arylation reactions.

Expedient copper-catalyzed one-pot click and intramolecular arylation reactions have been developed for the synthesis of 1,2-dihydroquinoline/chromene-fused triazoles with varying sugar functionalities. It has been observed that the additive TMEDA greatly facilitates this copper-catalyzed cyclization. This reaction involves two mechanistically distinct reactions an atom-economical click reaction and a direct arylation of a sugar triazole.
