Description
TBTA is a chemical compound that is also known as tris[(1-benzyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl]amine. It is a highly effective ligand that is used in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions. This compound was first introduced in 2006 by Himo et al. as a novel ligand for the CuAAC reaction. Since then, TBTA has been extensively used in a wide range of scientific applications, from drug discovery to material science.
