Reaction Steps

To 3-TMSE-phenol (4.0 g, 21.02 mmol) in 35 mL of DMF were added 3-azidophenol (3.41 g, 25.2 mmol), CuBr (153 mg, 1.05 mmol), and 2,2′-bipyridyl (328 mg, 2.10 mmol). The mixture was heated at 80° C. for 24 h, cooled to room temperature, then diluted with 250 mL of EtOAc. The combined organic mixture washed with water, and dried over MgSO4. Solvents were removed by rotary evaporation, and the residue was recrystallized in acetic acid/water to give 3.70 g (70% yield) of a brown crystalline solid. 1H NMR (MeOD-d4, 300 MHz, ppm): 8.80 (s, 1H, triazol-H), 7.43-7.26 (m, 6H, Ar—H), 6.95-6.91 (m, 1H, Ar—H), 6.84-6.83 (m, 1H, Ar—H). 13C NMR (MeOD-d4, 75 MHz, ppm): 158.6, 157.7, 148.1, 137.9, 131.1, 130.4, 129.7, 118.8, 116.7, 115.6, 115.1, 112.1, 110.7, 107.1.
