[3 + 2] Cycloaddition of Nitrile Ylides with Diazonium Salts: Copper-Catalyzed One-Pot Synthesis of Fully Substituted 1,2,4-Triazoles.

A novel [3 + 2] cycloaddition between nitrile ylides and diazonium salts was well-established. This copper-catalyzed three-component reaction was distinguished by mild conditions, ready availability, and operational simplicity, thus opening access to 1,2,4-triazoles with a diverse set of substitution patterns.
