Copper(I)-catalyzed Huisgen cycloaddition of terminal alkynes with unmasked azidoamines derived from amino acids is described. The reported strategy provides a new entry to highly hindered ${\beta}$-amino 1,2,3-triazole derivatives bearing a gem-diaryl group, which are potentially valuable entities as molecular catalysts for asymmetric transformations.
