Abstract
The exceptional versatility of the 1,2,3-triazole ring in tridentate carbonyl rhenium complexes has been explored starting from a “click chemistry” unexpected product obtained from the spontaneous copper to rhenium transmetalation, which opens the way to successive transformation to C-triazolyl and triazolylidene mesoionic carbene.

Abstract
The use of Schiff condensation followed by CuAAC affords complexes containing iminopyridine ligands functionalized either with a triazole ring or with a sulfonyl amido group via ring opening of the unstable sulfonyl triazole.
