“…[1] The N-donor ligands possessing modular electronic and steric properties are particularly suitable in stabilizing such variable oxidation states of Cu, thus justifying their immense significance in efficient operation of the relevant catalytic cycles. Among several N-donor heterocyclic ligands, benzotriazole-based motifs, [2,3,4,5] owing to some excellent attributes such as inexpensive, simple, stable, and ready accessibility, have been well-explored as suitable auxiliary ligands in various Cu-catalyzed organic syntheses. In addition to exhibiting very good σ-donor property, these nitrogen-enriched benzotriazole ligands also act as excellent π-acceptors, and thus they are able to stabilize low-valent Cu(I) intermediates which are key to several catalytic reactions.…”
