Abstract

Diazonium salts, formed from aromatic amines and tert-butyl nitrite in the presence of fluoroboric acid, reacted with triazoles in a copper-catalyzed Sandmeyer-type reaction under mild conditions to afford N-aryltriazoles in good yields. This method is amenable to a wide range of aromatic amines and triazoles and shows diverse functional group tolerance.
