Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition Catalyzed by a Glucose/Benedict Reagent System
Benedict’s Reagent is commonly used in identifying reducing sugars through a redox process where a Cu(I) species is generated. Despite the simplicity of this reaction, this has barely been investigated as a copper (I) source for catalytic processes. In this report, diverse organic azides and alkynes...

| Summary: | Benedict’s Reagent is commonly used in identifying reducing sugars through a redox process where a Cu(I) species is generated. Despite the simplicity of this reaction, this has barely been investigated as a copper (I) source for catalytic processes. In this report, diverse organic azides and alkynes were reacted in the presence of catalytic amounts of a Glucose–Benedict Reagent system, obtaining the corresponding 1,2,3-triazoles through a simple and environmentally friendly synthetic procedure. |
