Abstract

The development of synthetic methods for the synthesis of organic azides is highly important, given their critical role in advancing click chemistry over the last twenty years. We report a reagent‐economical, reliable, and scalable synthesis of alkyl azides from primary and secondary alcohols. This robust click method capitalizes on the synergistic interaction between Sulfur Fluoride Exchange (SuFEx) reagents – specifically, benzene‐1,3‐disulfonyl fluoride (BDSF) or benzene‐1,3,5‐trisulfonyl fluoride (BTSF) – and trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN3). The method offers procedural ease, accommodates a wide array of substrates, and enables late‐stage functionalization. Additionally, we demonstrate the protocol‘s adaptability by validating a straightforward one‐pot deoxyazidation‐CuAAC sequence for drug discovery applications.
