2. 1. Introduction • In this PPT, recent progress of the transition metal catalyzed denitrogenative transannulation of a triazole ring, which was discovered in 2007, is discussed. • 1,2,3-Triazoles are important heterocyclic units endowed with a broad spectrum of biological activities. They have been extensively used in medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, and in material science.

4. The position of this equilibrium depends upon several factors, such as temperature, solvent, and the nature of the substituent (R1) at C7 of the triazole ring. • The introduction of a halogen atom at C7 shifts the equilibrium to the right, which has been explained in terms of nonbonding repulsion between the lone pair of electrons on the halogen and nitrogen atom in the peri-position of the left. 1)G.

31. Conclusion ◆The PPT highlights the increasing interest in the development of transition metal catalyzed transannulation reactions. ◆Triazoles serves as a complimentary methodology for construction of heterocycles as it allows a general and highly efficient synthesis of complex and highly functionalized aromatic nitrogen heterocycles with diverse substitution patterns. ◆Unsymmetrical approaches in this area have not been developed as complete as the symmetrical ones, which require more attentions and researches.
