title: Palladium-catalyzed regioselective azidation of allylic C-H bonds under atmospheric pressure of dioxygen.
abstract: A palladium-catalyzed allylic azidation of alkenes with sodium azide under atmospheric pressure of dioxygen was developed. This methodology provides a new efficient and simple route for accessing allylic azides. Furthermore, the one-pot process consisting of Pd-catalyzed allylic azidation of alkenes and Cu-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition led directly to the 1,2,3-triazole from the alkene. The formed allylic azide can be also in situ reduced to the allylic amine or oxidized to the alkenyl nitrile.
