Tris(heterocyclemethyl)amines containing mixtures of 1,2,3-triazolyl, 2-benzimidazoyl, and 2-pyridyl components were prepared for ligand acceleration of the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. Two classes of ligands were identified: those that give rise to high reaction rates in coordinating solvents but inhibit the process when used in excess relative to copper and those that provide for fast catalysis in water and are not inhibitory in excess. Several "mixed" ligands were ide ...[more]
