Simple and direct : Aldehydes and ketones can be transformed into alkyl azides through a reductive coupling of the corresponding tosylhydrazones in a process that takes place simply in the presence of K 2 CO 3 , tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB), and NaN 3 (top of scheme). The application of this methodology followed by the Cu‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition allows the direct transformation of carbonyl compounds into triazoles (bottom of scheme).
