1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition: Click chemistry for the synthesis of 5-substituted tetrazoles from organoaluminum azides and nitriles
Aureggi, Valentina,Sedelmeier, Gottfried
, p. 8440 - 8444 (2007)
Cheap and safe: Conventional methods to prepare tetrazoles employ dangerous, toxic reagents. A new route to these heterocycles (see scheme) uses inexpensive and nontoxic dialkyl aluminum azides. The cycloaddition occurs under mild conditions and tolerates a variety of functional groups. The low cost and ecocompatibility make this process attractive for large-scale preparation.
