-sulfonylamidines selectively [17].
The following screening of organic (Table 1, entries 2‒7 and 8) and inorganic (Table 1, entry 10) bases at room temperature revealed that using DBU resulted in the highest yield of triazole 3a. Analysis of experiments with 100 mol %, 120 mol %, and 80 mol % of DBU (Table 1

catalytic strategy for the one-pot synthesis of N-sulfonylamidines is described. The cationic copper(I) complexes were found to be highly active and efficient under mild conditions in air and in the absence of solvent. A copper acetylide is proposed as key intermediate in this transformation.

Amide derivatives represent a ubiquitous molecular construct in chemistry [1][2][3]. This structural motif favours rearrangements that lead to high reactivity and associated bioactivity [4][5]. Indeed
, the presence of an N-atom in the amidine structure leads to opportunities as ligands and organocatalysts [6][7][8]. N-Sulfonylamidines and N-sulfonylimidates are members of a specific class of these amidines. One initial methodology developed for the formation of sulfonylamidines was based on the
