Abstract
Vicinal diamines are an important structural motif that has been widely used in biological, medicinal, and materials science. Transition-metal-catalyzed diazidation of alkene is a straightforward and efficient approach for vicinal diamines, which are unfavorably associated with excess oxidants and limited substrate scope for electron-deficient alkenes. Herein we report an electrocatalytic diazidation of alkenes with the electrode coated by Cu nanoparticles pyrolyzed from Cu(salen)-based metal-organic framework. This strategy is compatible with various alkenes including those electro-deficient ones. Remarkably, the modified electrode maintains high electrocatalytic activity for diazidation even after 15 cycles.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
