'''Click chemistry''', for which [[K. Barry Sharpless]] won the [[Nobel Prize]] in [[Chemistry]], refers to a variety of synthetic chemistry methods in which complex molecules are synthesized by first synthesizing two complex pieces which are capable of clicking together in a reaction to form the often very complex final desired product. The term is most often associated with a reaction between an [[alkyne]] and an [[azide]] under mild conditions using a copper catalyst.

Triazole synthesis.

Synthesis of substituted 1,2,3-triazoles

Most substituted triazoles are synthesized by one of several click chemistry methods. One method uses palladium (Pd) catalysts to couple alkenyl halides and sodium azide to product 4-substituted-1,2,3-triazoles[1]. This reaction also works with aromatic alkenyl halides. Click chemistry between azides and terminal aklynes, catalyzed by various copper reagents, can be used to synthesize 3,5-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles[2],[3].

A variety of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles can be made economically and in an environmentally friendly manner, by reacting a secondary amine, propargyl halides and an azide together in water, under atmospheric oxygen with a copper catalyst.[4]. Another method of 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles (not shown) uses no solvent. In this method, the cycloaddition of alkyl azides with enol ethers provides triazoles that are not amendable to synthesis using the coupling of azides with alkynes.[5] A variety of other synthetic methods are available[6].



Synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrazoles

Wherease triazoles can be produced by clicking an azide with an alkyne, the coupling of an azide with a cyano compound (R-CN) produces a 2,5-disubstituted 1,2,3,4-tetrazole.
