Abstract

A silver-mediated [3 + 2] cycloaddition of N-isocyanoiminotriphenylphosphorane as "CNN" building block to terminal alkynes provides pyrazoles. N-isocyanoiminotriphenylphosphorane is a stable, safe, easy-to-handle, and odorless solid isocyanide. The reaction offers mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and excellent functional group tolerance.
