A simple and direct palladium‐catalyzed aminocarbonylation of 5‐iodo‐1,2,3‐triazoles backbone for the incorporation of an amide functional group is presented. The approach is based on the palladium catalyzed carbonylative coupling reaction of iodo‐triazole with different amines employing formic acid and sulfuric acid as CO source (Morgan's reaction) to provide the 1,2,3‐triazole‐5‐carboxamides in good to excellent yields. The important features of this methodology include short reaction time, high yields, the use of dimethyl carbonate as a sustainable solvent, and the use of efficient alternative source of carbon monoxide, avoiding pressurized cylinder. The methodology described herein for the synthesis of 1,4,5‐trisubstituted 1,2,3‐triazole‐5‐carboxamides, can offers an alternative path for functionalization of other heterocycles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
