Abstract
A mild and rapid (diacetoxyiodo)benzene-mediated formal electrophilic α-azidation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds using commercially available Bu4NN3 as the azide source is reported. The reaction conditions employed are based on optimization studies conducted on the analogous halogenations with Et4NX (X = Cl, Br, I).
