Abstract Details

2013, Master of Science in Chemistry, Youngstown State University, Department of Chemistry.
In this thesis, primary alcohols, secondary alcohols as well as sugars were successfully converted to their corresponding alkyl azides using o-nitrobenzesulfonyl azide as the azide transferring reagent. This method of azidation successfully converted various groups of alcohols to their corresponding azides with little or no by-products. The thesis also deals with the investigation of the reaction mechanism the process of azidation goes through.
