- further diversification of the triazole products, including chemoselective transition metal-catalysed cross-coupling reactions using bifunctional boryl/germyl species. Keywords: chemoselectivity; click chemistry; copper; germanium; triazole; Introduction Since its inception, click chemistry has been
- proven useful in various Cu- and Pd-catalysed C–X-bond-forming strategies [43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51], including widespread use across several CuAAC methodologies [52][53][54]. Germanium-based functional groups have recently emerged as highly useful components for transition-metal-catalysed
- of borylated functional groups, allowing orthogonal cross-coupling, whilst also offering excellent stability compared to boron-based reagents [57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65][66][67]. Based on their utility and stability, germanium units could therefore be useful within CuAAC reactions and offer
