摘要
A palladium-catalyzed oxidative vicinal diazidation of alkenes has been developed, in which TMSN3 was used as azide source. Both styrenes and unactivated alkenes are suitable for this reaction. And trans-alkyldiazides were obtained as major products from cyclic alkenes with moderate to good diastereoselectivities. This reaction afforded an efficient way for the synthesis of useful 1,2-diamines after hydrogenation.
