Abstract:
The triazolobenzodiazepine as a cyclic imine was employed in a variety of Joullié-Ugi reactions, and three new families of unique triazolobenzodiazepine connected to carboxamide and tetrazole products were synthesized via a three-component reaction of the cyclic imine and isocyanides with each species of a carboxylic acid/water/TMSN3 under mild conditions in high yields. Furthermore, triazolobenzodiazepine imine was used in an interesting strategy based on the modified Ugi reaction (pseudo-Joullié-Ugi reaction) of cyclic imines with an isocyanide and acetylenedicarboxylates under catalyst-free conditions for the synthesis of triazolobenzodiazepine-fused pyrroles. Mechanistic investigation reveals that triazolobenzodiazepine-fused pyrroles have been generated via a surprising route. Significantly, the use of triazolobenzodiazepine in the Joullié-Ugi, azido-Joullié-Ugi, and pseudo-Joullié-Ugi reactions of a broad scope of biological scaffolds occurred under mild, simple conditions without any catalyst.

Preparation of 1° Amines: Azide Synthesis
Azide ions act as good nucleophiles and react with unhindered alkyl halides to form alkyl azides. Alkyl azides do not participate in further nucleophilic substitution reactions, thereby eliminating the chances of polyalkylated products. Alkyl azides are reduced by hydride-based reducing agents, like lithium aluminum...
