Summary:Cu(I)‐catalyzed 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition of organic azide and terminal alkyne (click reaction) has been extensively used in adjoining two entirely different building blocks, thus enabling an easy access to highly complex molecular architectures. This highly efficient protocol has several distinct advantages including high chemoselectivity, excellent regioselectivity, tolerance to a variety of solvents and functional groups, excellent reaction yield, and mild reaction conditions. Application of this reaction in generating peptide isostere, the triazolyl components, has recently gained momentum in chemical biology and drug research. Compatibility of 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition reaction with carbohydrates has led to the development of a new generation of drug‐like molecules, neoglycoconjugates, and neoglycopolymers possessing high chemotherapeutic potentials. This review highlights the extensive application of the click reaction in carbohydrate chemistry investigated so far with their future potential scope in medicinal chemistry.
