The most frequent synthetic approaches, summarized in Scheme 4, are towards the primary photophores. The preparation of aryl azide derivatives follows the typical retro-synthetic pathway in the majority of the reported cases (Scheme 4 A), and, practically, diazotation is the most commonly used procedure [24 - 29]. In the case of diazirines only one major synthetic sequence is repeated ammonolysis of oximes followed by dehydrogenation (Scheme 4B) [30-32]. There are various ways of preparing diazo- or diazocarbonyl-compounds most frequently the Forster and Bamford-Stevens reactions (Scheme 4C) are employed [33-37]. 

Katzenellenbogen has also studied progesterone receptor with an aryl azide derivative of the hormone (54, Fig. 18). The extremely efficient (60%) photo-covalent attachment was identified in two subunits (B 109 kDa, A 87 kDa) in a ratio of 3.3 1 [147]. 

The most popular type of photosensitive functionality is the aryl azide derivative. On photolysis, phenyl azide groups form short-lived nitrenes that react rapidly with the surrounding chemical environment (Gilchrist and Rees, 1969). Nitrenes can insert nonspecifically into chemical bonds of target molecules, including undergoing addition reactions with double bonds and insertion reactions into active hydrogen bonds at l"l C—H and N—H sites. Abundant evidence, however, indicates that the photolyzed...

Interest in the mechanism and product distribution of thermal and photochemical transformations of aryl azides led to the isolation of some nitrogen-containing derivatives of heptafulvalene. Based on elemental analysis and spectroscopic data it has been suggested tentatively that the compound isolated following vapor-phase pyrolysis of azidopentafluoro-... 

Reported structures for homobifunctional aryl azides include a biphenyl derivative and a naphthalene derivative (Mikkelsen and Wallach, 1976), a biphenyl derivative containing a central, cleavable disulfide group (Guire, 1976), and a compound containing a central l,3-diamino-2-propanol bridge between phenyl azide rings that are nitrated (Guire, 1976). The only commercially available homobifunctional photoreactive crosslinker is BASED. 

Reactions of salts of 1,2,3-triazole with electrophiles provide an easy access to 1,2,3-triazol-jV-yl derivatives although, usually mixtures of N-l and N-2 substituted triazoles are obtained that have to be separated (see Section 5.01.5). Another simple method for synthesis of such derivatives is addition of 1,2,3-triazole to carbon-carbon multiple bonds (Section 5.01.5). N-l Substituted 1,2,3-triazoles can be selectively prepared by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of acetylene or (trimethylsilyl)acetylene to alkyl or aryl azides (Section 5.01.9). 

Several approaches to the 1,2,3-triazole core have been published in 2000. Iodobenzene diacetate-mediated oxidation of hydrazones 152 led to fused 1,2,3-triazoloheterocycles 153 <00SC417>. Treatment of oxazolone 154 with iso-pentyl nitrite in the presence of acetic acid gave 1,2,3-triazole 155, a precursor to 3-(W-l,2,3-triazolyl)-substituted a,P-unsaturated a amino acid derivatives <00SC2863>. Aroyl-substituted ketene aminals 156 reacted with aryl azides to provide polysubstituted 1,23-triazoles 157 <00HC387>. 2-Aryl-2T/,4/f-imidazo[43-d][l,2,3]triazoles 159 were prepared from the reaction of triethyl AM-ethyl-2-methyl-4-nitro-l//-imidazol-5-yl phosphoramidate (158) with aryl isocyanates <00TL9889>. 

Photoreactive aryl azide linked retinoic acid derivative (termed ADAM-3,55, Fig. 18) labeled efficiently the recombinant E-subunit and the covalent attachment was identified within residues 492 - 510 and 589 - 594, which correspond to similar sequences found in the human retinoic receptor [148]. 

Benzotriazole and its derivatives are usually obtained by diazotization of o-phenylenediamines as discussed in Section 4.01.8.3 and in CHEC-1 <84CHEC-i(5)722>. Substituted o-phenylenediamines (e.g., 849) similarly give 1-substituted benzotriazoles (850) upon treatment with NaNOz (Equation (87)) <92JHC1519>. 1-Arylbenzotriazoles are alternatively synthesized from the cycloaddition of an aryl azide to benzyne or substituted benzynes, generated from the diazotization of anthranilic acid or its appropriately substituted derivatives (Scheme 169) <86CC399,87JCS(Pl)403, CHEC-i>. 

Closely related to the already mentioned electrocyclizations of N-acyl thione S-imide (see Section 4.14.9.2) are some intermolecular cycloadditions involving this unusual class of 1,3-dipoles. Thus, the thione-S-imide intermediate (233) is probably involved in the formation of spirodithiazoline derivative (234) from the thione (235) and aryl azides <93HCA2147>. Also fluorenone-S-/ -tosylimide affords with carbonyl or thiocarbonyl compounds (R H) the corresponding oxathia- or dithia-zolidine derivatives (236) (Y = O or S) <80BCJ1023> (Scheme 44) (see also Section 4.14.6.1). 

By the late 1980s it was clear that a significant number of thermal and photochemical reactions of arylhydroxylamines and their derivatives, N-chloroanilines, aryl azides, anthranilium salts, and other compounds could be explained in terms of nitrenium ions or transition states that resembled nitrenium ions. Since no monoarylnitrenium ion had been directly observed, and data on the lifetimes and quantitative reactivity/selectivity of these species were not available, it was not possible to assess whether the reactions that had been observed were due to free ions, or ion pairs, or preassociation processes. In many cases Sn2 reactions could not be ruled out because appropriate kinetics experiments had not been performed. Most authors had attributed the presence of reduction products in thermal and photochemical reactions to triplet ions, but calculations suggested that the triplet species may not be accessible in thermal processes. It was clear that singlet ions could be reduced under certain conditions, so the presence of the...

A cold, two-phase mixture of the arenediazonium salt in aqueous solution (prepared in situ from an aniline derivative) and hexane was treated with a solution of NaN, in H20. The aryl azide was extracted into the hexane layer as it formed which, after 2 h. was separated and charged to a polyolefin vessel containing excess anhyd HF. After 4 h the mixture was poured into ice water and rendered alkaline, and the fluoroaniline isolated by extraction and purified by either distillation or crystallization.
