Some ecological catalysts were prepared from Tunisian clays; they have been applied in the catalytic coupling reaction of alkynes and azides to prepare bioactive heterocyclic compounds based on 1,2,3-triazoles. Clays used in this work were taken from Jebal Shib (M'dhilla) and Jebal Es Sath (between Gafsa and Metlaoui) in Gafsa at South West of Tunisia. The reaction of terminal alkynes with azides in the presence of studied catalysts was studied for 36 hours at room temperature without solvents and excitements; two isomers (1,4) and (1,5) of 1,2,3-triazoles were obtained. Generally, the (1,4) isomer was obtained with an important proportion if Cu-Pullard clay was used as a catalyst in this synthesis reaction. The studied ecological catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. Heterocyclic triazoles were analyzed by 1 HNMR, 13 CNMR, Infrared (IR), and Ultraviolet spectroscopy. LC-MS analyses evaluated the molecular masses of synthesized triazoles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
