Click Chemistry Inspired Synthesis of Morpholine-Fused Triazoles

The synthesis of triazolyl azido alcohols from terminal alkyne via oxirane ring-opening of epichlorohydrin, followed by click reaction with alkynes, and subsequent azidation of chlorohydroxy triazoles was achieved under a one-pot methodology. The developed triazolyl azido alcohols were further utilized for the synthesis of a diverse range of morpholine-fused triazoles of chemotherapeutic value. The structure of all developed compounds has been elucidated using IR, NMR, MS, and elemental analysis, where four of them have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis.
