CuI as Cu(I) catalysts soluble in organic solvents, in the presence of diiso-
propylethylamine (DIPEA) or 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU), and under
microwave irradiation (MW; Scheme 6.1).
Several modifications of the reaction conditions have been proposed, such as the
use of noncomplexed CuI [27], solid-supported Cu(I) catalysts [28, 29], unprotected
carbohydrate precursors [30, 31], aqueous solvent mixtures [32], the production of
Cu(I) in the reaction mixture by reduction of Cu(II) with sodium ascorbate (NaAsc)
[33], and the generation of the azide reagent in situ from a fully unprotected sugar [34]
or from an amine precursor by Cu(II)-catalyzed diazo transfer [35]. Nevertheless,
the general scheme remains essentially the same. Click strategies have also been
implemented to design glycosensors by clusterizing sugars onto electroactive (e.g.,
ferrocene) [36, 37], optically active (e.g., anthraquinone) [38], or fluorescent cores
(e.g., tetraphenylethylene) [39]. Notably, the chemoselectivity and broad functional
group tolerance of the click reaction conditions allows the use of bifunctional scaffolds
(e.g., the
-trehalose derivative 11 ) that can be elaborated after a first click cycle
,
(
12 ;byreactionof 11 with the mannose-derived azide 4 ) to activate the adduct
for a second coupling (
13 ), thereby accessing heteroglycoclusters with controlled
arrangements of different sugar motifs (e.g., 15 ;byreactionof 13 with the glucose-
derived alkyne 14 ) (Scheme 6.2) [40].
