  • modular click chemistry libraries for functional screens using a diazotizing reagent
    Nature, 2019
    Co-Authors: Genyi Meng, Jiong Zhang, Yucheng Shen, Karl Barry Sharpless, Jiajia Dong
    Abstract:

    Click chemistry is a concept in which modular synthesis is used to rapidly find new molecules with desirable properties1. Copper(i)-catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) triazole annulation and sulfur(vi) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) catalysis are widely regarded as click reactions2–4, providing rapid access to their products in yields approaching 100% while being largely orthogonal to other reactions. However, in the case of CuAAC reactions, the availability of azide reagents is limited owing to their potential toxicity and the risk of explosion involved in their preparation. Here we report another reaction to add to the click reaction family: the formation of Azides from primary amines, one of the most abundant functional groups5. The reaction uses just one equivalent of a simple diazotizing species, fluorosulfuryl azide6–11 (FSO2N3), and enables the preparation of over 1,200 Azides on 96-well plates in a safe and practical manner. This reliable transformation is a powerful tool for the CuAAC triazole annulation, the most widely used click reaction at present. This method greatly expands the number of accessible Azides and 1,2,3-triazoles and, given the ubiquity of the CuAAC reaction, it should find application in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology and materials science. A ‘click’ reaction is developed for the simple and rapid formation of Azides from primary amines, and is used to prepare a library of over 1,200 Azides for subsequent use in the existing triazole annulation click reaction.
