Chemical consequences of the mechanical bond: a tandem active template-rearrangement reaction

Chemical consequences of the mechanical bond: a tandem active template-rearrangement reaction
Chemical consequences of the mechanical bond: a tandem active template-rearrangement reaction
We report the unexpected discovery of a tandem active template CuAAC‐rearrangement process in which N2 is extruded en route to the 1,2,3‐triazole product to give instead acrylamide rotaxanes. Mechanistic investigations suggest this process is dictated by the mechanical bond, which stabilizes the CuI‐triazolide intermediate of the CuAAC reaction and diverts it down the rearrangement pathway; when no mechanical bond is formed, the CuAAC product is isolated.

Abstract

We report the unexpected discovery of a tandem active template CuAAC‐rearrangement process in which N2 is extruded en route to the 1,2,3‐triazole product to give instead acrylamide rotaxanes. Mechanistic investigations suggest this process is dictated by the mechanical bond, which stabilizes the CuI‐triazolide intermediate of the CuAAC reaction and diverts it down the rearrangement pathway; when no mechanical bond is formed, the CuAAC product is isolated.
