One-pot, efficient, and regioselective syntheses of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles using aryldiazonium silica sulfates in water

Azidation of aryl halides promoted by EDTA

An efficient approach to azidation of aryl halides is described here. Good yields of aryl azides were obtained with [CuI/EDTA]–3 as a catalytic system. Cost-affectivity of the EDTA compared to expensive DMEDA (1 : 500 times) along with the use of 7EtOH:3H2O as mixed solvent and green medium makes it to be a suitable method for selective synthesis of aryl azides.

A green route for the cross-coupling of azide anions with aryl halides under both base and ligand-free conditions: exceptional performance of a Cu2O–CuO–Cu–C nanocomposite

Ligand-free and base-free conditions were used for the preparation of aryl azides using the cross-coupling of sodium azide and aryl halides catalysed by Cu₂O–CuO–Cu–C.
