Organic chemists are generally familiar with “Name Reactions” and many of these have had profound influence over the way we practice organic chemistry. However, there are a few reactions without a name that changed the course of history (science) and are unparalleled in terms of their impact over a wide range of scientific disciplines. “Olefin metathesis” is one such reaction that led to the award of Nobel Prize to the pioneers who contributed to the development of this reaction. In a similar vein, we have a group of reactions without a proper name that have taken the scientific community by storm in less than fifteen years, that is, “Click Reactions.”
Click chemistry is a chemical concept enunciated by Barry Sharpless, Scripps Research Institute, USA, in 2001, which highlights the importance of using a set of powerful, highly reliable, selective reactions under simple reaction conditions to join small molecular units together quickly for the rapid synthesis of new compounds via heteroatom links and create molecular diversity. Several types of reactions have been identified that fulfill the criteria- thermodynamically favored reactions that lead specifically to one product such as nucleophilic ring opening reactions of epoxides and aziridines, nonaldol type carbonyl reactions, additions to carbon–carbon multiple bonds, Michael additions, and cycloaddition reactions. The best-known click reactions are the copper-catalyzed reaction of azides and alkynes or the so-called CuAAC reaction and the thiol-ene reaction.
After the advent of click chemistry, the synthesis of molecules with outstanding, multifaceted properties has become very popular and easier simply by conjugating two or more molecules that possess remarkable individual properties. Over the past fifteen years, developments in the area of click chemistry have been extraordinary, and these reactions have been explored to their limits in various fields.
Who would have imagined that this simple set of reactions referred to as “click reactions” would revolutionize the approach to science cutting across disciplines such as drug discovery, polymer synthesis, materials science, chemical biology, supramolecular chemistry, and cosmetic chemistry in a short span of time. The tenth anniversary of the discovery of this concept of click reactions was celebrated with a lot of fanfare in the scientific community in 2011.
A number of review articles appeared in leading scientific journals covering the impact of this simple but elegant set of reactions in the design and synthesis of novel molecular architectures. While there are a couple of books that have been published dealing with click chemistry and its application to biology and material science, no book has been published so far that highlights the “click concept” and its far-reaching implications in various facets of organic synthesis. Hopefully, this book would fulfill this need and would also serve as a ready reckoner for accessing all information in pursuit of newer vistas in scientific research.
This book Click Reactions in Organic Synthesis covers ten different topics that would illustrate the scope of click reactions in various facets of organic synthesis. Leading experts who are active in this field have contributed to this venture. In the introductory chapter, Ramapanicker and Chauhan provide the mechanistic and synthetic perspectives of click reactions. Gopalan and Balasubramanian discuss the applications of click reactions in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and drug discovery/development in Chapter 2. In Chapter 3, Gil and coworkers present the perspectives of green chemical synthesis. Ramachary and Anebouselvy have focused the attention on metal-free click reactions in organic synthesis in Chapter 4. Rutjes and Hoogstede have provided details on the use of click chemistry to peptide synthesis in Chapter 5. In Chapter 6, work related to the application of click chemistry to the synthesis of carbohydrate derivatives is discussed by Tiwari and coworkers. Synthesis of polymers and modifications using CuAAC click reactions are enunciated by Ramakrishnan and Mandal in Chapter 7. Chemistry related to thiol-ene (click) reactions in polymer synthesis and modifications are presented by Chen and coworkers in Chapter 8. Pasini highlights the importance of click chemistry in the synthesis of macrocycles in Chapter 9. In the last chapter, Schinazi and coworkers discuss the importance of click chemistry in DNA synthesis and modifications. I feel honored by the excellent contributions that the authors have delivered, and I owe my special thanks to all these scientists. I would also like to thank publishing editors /staff of Wiley-VCH for their fruitful collaboration.
Finally, I would like to place on record my sincere thanks to the pioneer of this area of work, Professor Barry Sharpless on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of “Click Reactions.”

Search for reactions that can be used to link two or more diversely functionalized molecules with minimum effort and without the formation of side products has become increasingly important in the past 15 years. As organic molecules started to find their place as easily tunable and functional materials, the requirement of new conjugation reactions that can be used effectively by nonsynthetic organic chemists became unavoidable. Such a reaction should be easier to carry out, yield high selectivity, should be compatible with water and other protic solvents, and should lead to quantitative conversions. Click chemistry is a collection of such reactions that has evolved as an efficient tool for ligation, which gained quick acceptance in biotechnology, material and polymer science, medicinal chemistry, and so on. Among all the click reactions, copper-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar Huisgen cycloaddition (HDC) between a terminal alkyne and an azide is the jewel in the crown. Owing to its remarkable functional group tolerance, researchers can fearlessly introduce easily functionalizable groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino groups into conjugate molecules using this reaction.
The concept of click chemistry was first introduced by Sharpless and coworkers in 2001 at the Scripps Research Institute [1]. Click chemistry is not limited to a set of organic reactions, but is a synthetic philosophy inspired by nature in terms of their efficiency, selectivity, and simplicity. Any reaction that can produce conjugate molecules efficiently from smaller units under simpler reaction conditions can be considered as a click reaction. The catchy term click refers to reactions that are modular in approach, efficient, selective, versatile in nature, give single product (high yielding), and can be performed in benign and easily removable solvents without the need for chromatographic purification. There are various reactions with different mechanisms that can be considered as click reactions, provided they follow a simple common reaction trajectory [1].
Sharpless first introduced the concept of click chemistry to provide an effective conjugation technique in drug discovery [2], but the concept and methodology were widely accepted, and click chemistry found its applications in almost all facets of research and technology, which employ organic molecules, such as polymer science [3], nanoscience [4], bioconjugation [5], and development of sensors [6] .
In this chapter, we have provided a detailed account of various click reactions with emphasis on their mechanisms and synthetic details. The discussions are based on the following classification of click reactions.
The classical HDC reaction between an alkyne and an azide is the most discussed among click reactions. Both alkynes and azides are unreactive under physiological conditions and undergo a cycloaddition reaction only at elevated temperatures (Scheme 1.1) [7, 8]. Although both alkynes and azide functions can easily be introduced on to the substrates, the cycloaddition reaction is highly exothermic (ΔH0 is between −50 and −65 kcal/mol) and has a high activation barrier of 25–26 kcal/mol (for methyl azide and propyne). Hence, the uncatalyzed reaction is generally slow and is not regioselective [9]. The difference between HOMO-LUMO energy levels of both azide and alkyne are comparable, thus both dipole HOMO and dipole LUMO pathways can operate in this reaction leading to a mixture of 1,4 and 1,5-triazole regioisomers. It is, however, observed that the use of electron-deficient terminal alkynes can impart 1,4-regioselectivity to a reasonable extent. These factors limit the use of uncatalyzed Huisgen cycloaddition as an effective conjugation technique.

Sharpless [9] and Meldal [10] independently reported a Cu(I)-catalyzed version of the cycloaddition reaction between azides and terminal alkynes, which is 107 times faster than the uncatalyzed reaction. The interaction between Cu(I) and terminal alkynes makes the latter a better 1,3-dipolarophile, enhancing its reaction with azides. The Cu(I)-catalyzed reaction is highly regioselective and only the 1,4-adducts are formed. The Cu(I)-catalyzed reactions can be carried out at room temperature and at a much faster rate.
Sharpless reported the possibility of using in situ generated copper(I), obtained through the reduction of copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO4·5H2O) with ascorbic acid, as an efficient catalyst for carrying out azide–alkyne conjugation reactions in solutions [9]. The reactions worked well when a mixture of water and an alcohol is used as the solvent. The solvent mixture allowed effective dissolution of the metal salt and the organic components needed to be conjugated. Meldal and coworkers reported a very practical application of azide–alkyne cycloaddition catalyzed with cuprous iodide in conjugating peptides through side chains or the backbone in solid phase [10]. Both reactions were selective for the formation of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles and together revolutionized the concept of click reactions (Scheme 1.2).
Scheme 1.2 CuAAC click reaction.
In addition to being a stable linker, the triazole group has certain other advantages. On comparison with an amide bond, which was otherwise the most common linkage used, a triazole group exhibits certain interesting and unique properties. Unlike an amide bond, triazoles are not susceptible to hydrolytic cleavage. They cannot be reduced or oxidized under normal conditions. A triazole linkage, with an extra atom in its backbone, places the carbon atoms linked to 1- and 4-positions at a distance of 5.0 Å, while an amide linkage places the carbon atoms only at 3.8 Å apart from each other. The nitrogen atoms at 2- and 3-positions of the triazole have weak hydrogen-bond-accepting properties. The inherent dipole moment in a triazole ring leads to polarization of the C5–H bonds, making them hydrogen bond donors and enabling C–H⋯X hydrogen bonds, similarly to an amide bond [11]. These properties also enabled Cu(I)-catalyzed triazole formation to gain attention as an effective conjugation method.
Conjugation of functional molecules through triazoles received immediate attention especially in drug discovery. Linhardt et al. synthesized some sialic acid conjugates using copper catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), which are potential neuraminidase inhibitors with good IC50 values (Figure 1.1) [12]. There are a large number of such examples of CuAAC being used effectively for assembling small molecular units to obtain more functional and useful molecules. An interesting example is the synthesis of the rigid macrocycle C (Figure 1.2) by Flood et al., in which triazole units function as rigid structural units and provide acidic hydrogens to interact and detect chloride ions in organic solvents [13]. In a similar attempt, Beer et al. have reported a ferrocene-containing bis(triazole) macrocycle D (Figure 1.2), in which they have increased the anion binding tendency of the C–H of triazole by converting triazole units to cationic triazolium moieties. Alkylation of a triazole increases its binding capability with anions such as chloride and benzoate ions even in polar organic solvents [14].

A detailed mechanistic analysis of CuAAC was reported by Jan H. van Maarseveen and coworkers in 2006 [15]. The report was based on comprehensive kinetic studies and DFT calculations. Studies showed that the Cu-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction proceeds through a stepwise mechanism and the activation energy is 11 kcal/mol less than that of the uncatalyzed reaction, which has an activation energy of 26 kcal/mol. However, a concerted mechanism involving Cu–acetylene π-complex and the azide was calculated to have a higher activation energy of 27.8 kcal/mol. The reaction begins with the formation of a Cu–alkyne π complex, which then forms a copper acetylide after deprotonation of the alkyne proton. Coordination of copper with the alkyne makes the acetylenic proton more acidic, increasing its acidity by up to 9.7 pH units, which allows the deprotonation to occur in aqueous media even in the absence of a base. The copper acetylide exists in equilibrium between a monomer and a dimer. One of the Cu ions in the dimer coordinates with the azide nitrogen and activates it. This complex then cyclizes to give a metallacycle via a nucleophilic attack of the terminal nitrogen of the azide group on the internal carbon of the alkyne. The metallacycle then undergoes a ring contraction through a transannular interaction between the lone pair of electrons on the substituted nitrogen of the azide and the CCu bond. This relatively faster step yields a Cu triazolide, which undergoes protonation to liberate the 1,4-disubstituted triazole and regenerates the Cu(I) catalyst (Scheme 1.3) [16].
Scheme 1.3 Mechanism of the CuAAC reaction as proposed by Jan H. van Maarseveen [15].
The success achieved in CuAAC click reactions prompted researchers to look for better and more stable catalysts to carry out the azide–alkyne cycloaddition to triazoles. However, despite several efforts, Cu+1 is found to be the best catalyst. The unique activity of Cu+1 over other metal ions is due to its ability to involve the terminal alkynes in both σ and π interactions and the possibility of immediate replacement of the ligands in its coordination sphere (generally in aqueous medium). However, Cu+1 is thermodynamically unstable and oxidizes to Cu+2 or disproportionates to a mixture of Cu+2 and Cu under aerobic conditions. Cu+2 is catalytically inactive, and its generation halts the reaction.
The thermodynamic instability of Cu+1 places importance on its introduction to a reaction mixture. It is observed that Cu+1 species are relatively stable in organic solvents and in the absence of water and oxygen. Cu(I) salts such as CuI, CuBr, and CuOTf·C6H6 have been found to be efficient catalysts in organic solvents. The use of Cu(I) salts in organic solvents is generally carried out with the addition of a tertiary amine base such as diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) or 2,6-lutidine [17]. This is attributed largely to the requirement of a base to deprotonate the Cu–alkyne π complex, so as to generate the copper acetylide. It is also observed that amines and certain solvents such as acetonitrile [18] stabilize the Cu(I) species through coordination, preventing its degradation through oxidation or disproportionation.
When the reactions are carried out in aqueous media or in a mixture of water and an alcohol (most commonly tert-butanol), the degradation of Cu(I) salts is inevitable. It is found that the use of a Cu(II) salt such as CuSO4·5H2O along with reducing agents such as sodium ascorbate, hydrazine, or tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP) generates Cu+1in situ. This method, where the active catalyst is generated in the reaction mixture via reduction of Cu(II) salts, works well in aqueous solutions and even in the presence of oxygen [19]. Additionally, the ability of water to act as a base allows these reactions to be carried out in the absence of an external base such as DIPEA. The continuous presence of a reducing agent such as sodium ascorbate ensures the regeneration of Cu(I) even if the active catalysts is quenched by air [19b]. It is also advantageous that carrying out reactions in aqueous media with in situ generation of Cu(I) species allows the use of substrates with unprotected amino and hydroxyl functions.
A third but less explored method for introduction of Cu+1 into the reaction mixture is by vigorously shaking or by microwave irradiation of a solution containing metallic copper. While the amount of Cu+1 ions produced in solution by vigorous shaking is quite less leading to extended reaction times (12–48 h) [20], microwave irradiation completes the reaction in 10–15 min at elevated temperatures [21]. An advantage of this method is the isolation of products with negligible copper contamination. Various other forms of copper such as Cu(I)-modified zeolites, copper oxide nanoparticles [22], or copper nanoparticles adsorbed on charcoal [23] have all been utilized successfully for CuAAC reactions.
Although CuAAC can be performed with Cu+1 generated in situ or provided as a Cu(I) salt in the absence of any ligands, certain ligands such as those that can form heterocyclic chelates with Cu+1 ions are shown to increase the rate of the reaction (Figure 1.3) [24]. The role of these ligands is assumed to be based on restraining Cu+1 from interactions, which lead to its degradation. Tris-(benzyltriazolylmethyl)amine (TBTA, E), a tetradentate ligand, is shown to be very efficient in increasing the rate of CuAAC click reactions [25]. Owing to its tetradentate-binding ability, it completely surrounds the Cu(I) center and does not provide any free binding sites for destabilizing interactions. The tertiary amino group in TBTA can also act as the required base, when reactions are carried out in organic solvents. Certain ligands are known to reduce the minimum catalyst loading by almost 10 times with no increase in reaction time [26]. Some common nitrogen-based ligands used in facilitating CuAAC are shown in Figure 1.3. Other than those based on nitrogen, ligands containing oxygen, phosphorous [27], carbon [28], and sulfur [29] as donor atoms are also reported.

Among various other metal ions studied for catalyzing HDC between azides and alkynes, Ru(II) catalysts were found to be the most notable. The catalytic activity and regioselectivity of the reaction were found to be dependent on the ligand environment of the Ru center. Unlike the Cu(I)-catalyzed reactions, azide–alkyne cycloaddition reactions catalyzed by ruthenium complexes showed a preference for the formation of 1,5-disubstituted triazoles to the formation of 1,4-disubstituted triazoles (Scheme 1.4). Out of the various ruthenium complexes studied for catalysis of this cycloaddition reaction, the most successful catalysts are Cp*RuCl, Cp*RuCl(PPh3)2, Cp*RuCl(COD), and Cp*RuCl(NBD). The reactions are performed with 1–2 mol% of the catalyst in THF/dioxane or in any nonprotic solvent at temperatures ranging from ambient to 80 °C. Another salient feature of Ru-catalyzed reactions is the possibility to use internal alkynes for the reaction to obtain 1,4,5-trisubstituted triazoles as the products in good yields (Scheme 1.4) [30]. Other than Cu and Ru, attempts have been made to use other metals such as Ni, Fe, Sm, Ce, and Zn also as catalysts for HDC reactions, but none of them gave satisfying results to be used widely [31].

Unlike CuAAC reactions, the Ru-catalyzed version of HDC reactions was more dependent on the steric details of the azides than those of the alkyne components. Primary and secondary azides in the presence of catalytic amount of Ru complexes react with a wide range of terminal alkynes, but tertiary azides seem to be less reactive [24]. Electronic and steric properties of the alkynes too play a crucial role in these reactions, but not as much as those of the azides. Alkynes having H-bond donor groups such as propargyl alcohols and propargyl amines show high regioselectivity even for unsymmetrical alkynes. Strong H-bond between OH or NH2 of the alkyne and Cl on the Ru complex is the driving force for the reaction. The new bond is always formed between β carbon of alkyne and terminal nitrogen of the azides.
Mechanistic insights into ruthenium-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (RuAAC) reactions were provided by Fokin and coworkers in 2008, based on DFT calculations [32]. The mechanism is proposed to have two important steps. After the initial coordination of the alkyne and azide onto ruthenium, an irreversible oxidative coupling takes place, which also involves the formation of a C–N bond by the nucleophilic attack of the electronegative carbon of the activated alkyne on the terminal electrophilic nitrogen of the coordinated azide, forming a six-membered ruthenacycle intermediate. This cyclic intermediate then undergoes a rate-determining reductive elimination to give a triazolyl complex, which liberates a 1,5-disubstituted triazole product through ligand exchange (Scheme 1.5).
Scheme 1.5 Proposed mechanism of RuAAC click reactions.
Apart from the applications in synthesizing drug molecules with a triazole linkage, azide–alkyne cycloaddition reactions have also been used for various biological applications such as site-specific protein/viruses modifications and functionalization of cell surfaces. Use of transition-metal-catalyzed reactions for such applications is not advisable as metal salts could be detrimental to living cells. Copper salts are known to degrade oligonucleotide strands, and copper is cytotoxic at higher concentrations. This has placed an importance on the search for click reactions that can be carried out without the use of metal catalysts.
Use of electron-deficient alkynes is a possible option for increasing the rate of an uncatalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction. However, this requirement places a serious restriction on the nature of functionalities that can be incorporated on the alkyne. A rapid cycloaddition reaction between neat cyclooctyne, the smallest stable cycloalkyne, and phenyl azide to give a triazole product in high yields was reported as early as in 1961. The release of substantial ring strain of nearly 18 kcal/mol in the cyclooctyne was the driving force for this reaction. Bertozzi and coworkers explored the possibility of using this strain-promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) reaction as a click reaction for bioconjugation [33]. They introduced electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) on to the cyclooctyne system to increase its reactivity toward cycloaddition reactions further. Mono- and difluorinated cyclooctyne derivatives were prepared, which have lower energy LUMO providing an increased second-order rate constants for cycloaddition reactions (Scheme 1.6) [34].
Scheme 1.6 An example for SPAAC click reaction.
Boons and coworkers employed a different strategy and introduced benzyl groups adjacent to the alkyne function, thereby increasing the ring strain in the cyclooctyne molecule [35]. They succeeded in using these benzyl derivatives for reaction with azides and employed this strategy in visualizing labeled glycoconjugates metabolically in living cells.
Various other cycloaddition reactions including Diels–Alder reaction and hetero-Diels–Alder reactions have been employed as click reactions. However, all such reactions have found no or limited applications as conjugation methods.
