One-Pot, Three-Step Reaction of 5-[(Trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]pyrrolidin-2-one with Azides Catalyzed by Cu-I: Synthesis of a Novel Class of 1,4-Disubstituted 1,2,3-Triazoles

A very fast, easy and efficient synthesis is described for a novel and biologically important class of 1,4-disubstituted-4-(5-pyrrolidin-2-one)-1,2,3-triazoles by an ultrasound-assisted one-pot, three-step click reaction sequence of 5-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]pyrrolidin-2-one with organic azides mediated by catalytic CuI salts.
