A general catalytic method using a Mn-porphyrin-based catalytic system is reported that enables two different reactions (click reaction and denitrogenative annulation) and affords two different classes of nitrogen heterocycles, 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles (with a pyridyl motif) and 1,2,4-triazolo-pyridines. Mechanistic investigations suggest that although the click reaction likely proceeds through an ionic mechanism, which is different from the traditional click reaction, the denitrogenative annulation reaction likely proceeds via an electrophilic metallonitrene intermediate rather than a metalloradical intermediate. Collectively, this method is highly efficient and offers several advantages over other methods. For example, this method excludes a multi-step synthesis of the N-heterocyclic molecules described and produces only environmentally benign N2 gas a by-product.

A unique concept for the intermolecular denitrogenative annulation of 1,2,3,4-tetrazoles and alkynes was discovered by using a catalytic amount of Fe(TPP)Cl and Zn dust. The reaction precludes the traditional, more favored click reaction between an organic azide and alkynes, and instead proceeds by an unprecedented metalloradical activation. The method is anticipated to advance access to the construction of important basic nitrogen heterocycles, which will in turn enable discoveries of new drug candidates.
