An approach toward the syntheses of triazolo benzoxazines, triazolo quinoxalines, triazolo benzodiazepines, triazolo benzoxazepines, and triazolo benzothiazines via a simple and convenient protocol using basic alumina as solid support

A microwave assisted green protocol for the syntheses of triazole fused benzoxazines, benzoxazepines, quinoxalines, and benzothiazines was investigated using basic alumina as solid support. The one-pot reaction was carried out using Cu(phen)(PPh3)Br as a catalyst. The protocol did not require the use of any additional ligands, base or the use of expensive and toxic palladiums.
