This methodology offers efficient and accelerated access to the glycohybrids, showcasing improved reaction conditions that yield high-quality products. In this research endeavor, we have successfully synthesized a series of twenty-seven triazole bridged N-glycosides of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidinones. Our investigation extends beyond synthetic endeavors to explore the potential therapeutic relevance of these compounds. We subjected them to rigorous in vitro screening against prominent breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, MDA-MB231, and MDA-MB453. Among the library of compounds synthesized, (2S,3S,4R,5S,6S)-2-(acetoxymethyl)-6-(4-((5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-7-oxopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-1(7H)-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3,4,5-triyl triacetate emerged as a potent compound, exhibiting remarkable anti-cancer activity with an IC50 value of 27.66 ?M against the MDA-MB231 cell line. Additionally, (2S,3R,4R,5S,6S)-2-(acetoxymethyl)-6-(4-((7-oxo-5-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-1(7H)-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3,4,5-triyl triacetate displayed notable inhibitory potential against the MCF-7 cell line, with an IC50 value of 4.93 ?M. Furthermore, in silico docking analysis was performed to validate our experimental findings. These findings underscore the promise of our triazole bridged N-glycosides of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidinones as potential anti-cancer agents. This research not only enriches the field of glycohybrid synthesis but also contributes valuable insights into the development of novel anti-cancer therapeutics. � 2024 The Royal Society of Chemistry.enArticle10.1039/d3ra06993a
