Enhancing the reactivity of 1,2,3-triazoles in "click" macrocycles by face-to-face dibenzylammonium ion binding

Chem Commun (Camb). 2007 Dec 7:(45):4773-5. doi: 10.1039/b711505a. Epub 2007 Oct 23.

Abstract

A face-to-face binding motif between dibenzylammonium ions and macrocycles containing 1,2,3-triazoles was established, which operates cooperatively to enhance the reactivity of 1,2,3-triazoles in an Arbuzov-type dealkylation reaction.
