AbstractThe 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of sydnones (1,2,3-oxadiazolium-5-olates) with dipolarophiles, such as alkynes, has recently emerged as a versatile click reaction, with applications ranging from the mild and regioselective preparation of polysubstituted pyrazoles for drug discovery to the metal-free bioorthogonal ligation of biomacromolecules in living cells. This chapter reviews the importance of metal catalysis for controlling the regioselectivity of the copper-mediated reaction (CuSAC), as well as the development of fluorogenic probes, the click and release strategy, and photo-triggered ligations based on strain-promoted sydnone–alkyne cycloadditions (SPSAC).

AbstractProclaimed by Sharpless in 2001, the manifesto of click chemistry philosophy shifted the focus from target-oriented to drug-like-oriented synthesis, and has enormously accelerated the drug-discovery process over the last two decades. Copper(I)-catalyzed and metal-free versions of the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides and alkynes have become the reference click chemistry synthetic tools. These processes are adaptable to various drug-design modes such as kinetic target guided synthesis (in situ click chemistry assembling; KTGS), combinatorial chemistry/high-throughput-screening approaches, or structure-based rational projecting. Moreover, the facile click chemistry derivatization of natural or synthetic products, linking molecules or improving the stability of leads by installation of 1,2,3-triazoles, is another important stream of bioactivities. This review is intended to provide a general overview of click-chemistry-powered drug design, with dozens of successful examples resulting in the discovery of nanomolar-active 1,2,3-triazoles in every stage of drug development.

Glucose-, galactose- and lactose-containing photosensitizers based on derivatives of chlorophyll a and bacteriochlorophyll a were synthesized with the use of [3+2] cycloaddition between sugar azides and triple bond derivatives of chlorins and bacteriochlorins. Unlike bacteriochlorin cycloimide, chlorin was detected to form a Cu -complex during the click reaction. An approach to the synthesis of metal-free glycosylated chlorins was developed with the use of "protection" by Zn 2+ cation and subsequent demetalation. It is based on the action of alkynyl chlorin e6 derivative Zn -complex, which is resistant to the substitution by copper cation. Bacteriochlorin p cycloimide conjugate with per-acetylated β-D-lactose was obtained and shown to become water-soluble after unblocking of the lactose hydroxy functions. NMR studies allowed for the elucidation of structure, tautomeric form and conformation of the obtained compounds.

The 1,2,3-triazole group is one of the most important connective linkers and functional aromatic heterocycles in modern chemistry. The boom in growth of, in particular, 1,4-disubstituted triazole products since the early 2000’s, can be largely attributed to the birth of click chemistry and the discovery of the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). Yet the synthesis of relatively simple, albeit important, 1-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles, has been surprisingly more challenging. We report a straightforward and scalable click-protocol for the synthesis of 1-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles from organic azides and the bench stable acetylene-surrogate, ethenesulfonyl fluoride (ESF). The transformation proceeds through a thermal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the azide and ESF to give a sulfonyl fluoride substituted triazoline, that itself spontaneously aromatizes through formal loss of HF/SO<sub>2 </sub>to give the stable triazole products with excellent fidelity. The new click reaction tolerates a wide selection of substrates and proceeds smoothly under metal-free conditions to give the products in excellent yield, and without need for additives or chromatographic purification. Further, under controlled conditions, the 1-substituted-1,2,3-triazole products undergo Michael reaction with a second equivalent of ESF to give the unprecedented 1-substituted triazolium sulfonyl fluoride salts, demonstrating the versatility and orthogonal reactivity of ESF. The importance of this novel method is evidenced through the late-stage modification of several drugs and drug fragments, including the synthesis of a new improved derivative of the famous antibiotic, chloramphenicol.

In recent years, there has been a growing demand for novel strategies for biomedical applications. Chitosan is a typical cationic amino-containing polysaccharide that has been widely used due to its unique properties. The grafting modification of chitosan has been explored as an interesting method to develop multifunctional novel chitosan hybrid materials for drug delivery, tissue engineering, and other biomedical applications. Recently, “click” chemistry has been introduced into the synthesis of polymeric materials with well-defined and complex chain architectures. The Huisgen’s 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between alkynes and azides yielding triazoles is the principal example of a “click” reaction. Bioconjugation, surface modification, and orthogonal functionalization of polymers were successfully performed through this chemoselective reaction. In recent literature interest has been shown in this cycloaddition for the modification of polysaccharides, however, only a few chitosan graft copolymers have been synthesized by this technique.
