[3+2] Cycloaddition of azide with aldehyde hydrazone through an aminyl radical-polar crossover strategy

Chem Commun (Camb). 2017 Jan 17;53(6):1045-1047. doi: 10.1039/c6cc08779e.

Abstract

A novel approach to obtain functionalized tetrazoles by a [3+2] cycloaddition of azide with aldehyde hydrazone is reported. This reaction features a broad substrate scope and mild reaction conditions through an aminyl radical-polar crossover strategy.
