ABSTRACT

Hydrogen-bond mediated coupling of 1,2,3-triazoles to indoles and pyrroles results in N2 selective functionalization of the triazole moiety in moderate to excellent yields. The reaction was tolerant of un-, mono- and disubstituted triazoles and was applied to synthesize tryptophan derived fluorescent amino acids.
