Abstract
Transition metal-catalyzed N-atom transfer reactions of azides provide efficient ways to construct new carbon-nitrogen and sulfur-nitrogen bonds. These reactions are inherently green: no additive besides catalyst is needed to form the nitrenoid reactive intermediate, and the by-product of the reaction is environmentally benign N(2) gas. As such, azides can be useful precursors for transition metal-catalyzed N-atom transfer to sulfides, olefins and C-H bonds. These methods offer competitive selectivities and comparable substrate scope as alternative processes to generate metal nitrenoids.
