One-pot, efficient, and regioselective syntheses of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles using aryldiazonium silica sulfates in water

A one-pot, efficient, and straightforward procedure for the copper-catalyzed synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles is studied by in situ generation of aryl azides via the reaction of aryldiazonium silica sulfates and sodium azide, followed by coupling with a terminal alkyne. These reactions are carried out in water at room temperature without using any additional ligands.
