Geminal Bis- and Tristriazoles: Long-known but still Uncommon Heterocyclic Entities

Abstract

Geminal bis- and tristriazoles belong to a rare and mainly overlooked class of organic compounds with interesting properties. This review summarizes the methods for their preparation. Moreover, applications of these compounds are described, ranging from ring extensions to their use as reactive intermediates for the efficient construction of heterocycles.
