Cobalt-Catalyzed Synthesis of Tertiary Azides from α,α-Disubstituted Olefins under Mild Conditions Using Commercially Available Reagents

Abstract

The use of commercially available azide sources is presented for the cobalt-catalyzed hydroazidation reaction. α,α-Disubstituted olefins with a variety of functional groups were employed as substrates, providing tertiary azides in useful yields.
