The yield of 3//-azepine appears to be influenced by substituents on the azide ring although no in-depth study has been reported. 4-Halophenyl azides, in most cases, give rise to complex mixtures of products.177 4-Tolyl azide, on thermolysis in aniline, yields 5-methyl-iV-phenyl-3//-azepin-2-amine (18% mp 157-158°C), whereas the thermolyses of 4-methoxy-, 4-methyl-, 4-chloro-, and 4-nitrophenyl azides in a range of arylamines (4-chloro-, 4-methoxy-, and pen-tafluoroaniline) yield only azo compounds and uncharacterized tarry products.178... 

When mesitylene-2-sulphonyl azide (3) is heated to 150 °C in n-dodecane, a Curtius-type rearrangement of the nitrene (4) occurs as discussed in Section 2.1 i to give 2,4,6-trimethylaniline and the hexa-methylazobenzene 14>. A similar result has now been observed by a careful analysis of the thermolysis products of durene-3-sulphonyl azide in w-dodecane at 150 °C. The amine is definitely formed but the azo-compound could barely be detected 13>.

Reductions with aluminum are carried out almost exclusively with aluminum amalgam. This is prepared by immersing strips of a thin aluminum foil in a 2% aqueous solution of mercuric chloride for 15-60 seconds, decanting the solution, rinsing the strips with absolute ethanol, then with ether, and cutting them with scissors into pieces of approximately 1 cm [141,142]. In aqueous and non-polar solvents aluminum amalgam reduces cumulative double bonds [143], ketones to pinacols [144], halogen compounds [145], nitro compounds [146, 147], azo compounds [148], azides [149], oximes [150] and quinones [151], and cleaves sulfones [141, 152, 153] and phenylhydrazones [154] (Procedure 30, p. 212). 

PE, RIE and IM resistances for an extensive list of commercial photoresists are included as well for comparison with the vinyl systems and amongst themselves. Although the exact com-osition of these systems is not public information, the generic type of base resin or polymer binder is generally known. In addition, the photoactive components are all known to be aromatic azides or azo-compounds. 

In 1951, Smith and Brown discovered that the decomposition of o-biphenyl azide produces carbazole in excellent yield. Swenton et al. demonstrated that photochemical formation of carbazole was a singlet nitrene process. In contrast, triplet sensitized photolysis of o-azidobiphenyl produces the corresponding azo compound. Direct photolysis in the presence of diethylamine produces an aze-pine in addition to carbazole, and the latter product is formed even in neat amine. °...

Quite a number of new Fcg clusters has resulted from unusual reactions. Among these are the nitrogen bridged triangles [26] prepared from Fe2(CO)9 and silyl azides (31, 255) and [37] prepared from Fe2(CO)g and several azo compounds (24, 25), while the previously known clusters Fe3(CO)9(NR)2 were prepared from Fe(CO)5 and organic nitro compounds (26). 

Organic azides (RNS) are isoelectronic with diazo-compounds, and like them are yellow in colour. On irradiation azides lose nitrogen to produce monovalent nitrogen species, nitrenes lRN . In the absence of an addend, aliphatic nitrenes generally undergoa shift of hydrogen to give an imine (5.34), whereas aromatic nitrenes can dimerize to yield an azo-compound (S.3SI.

These reactions are important in synthetic organic chemistry, because they lead to highly reactive chemical species called carbenes and nitrenes. A carbene has two unpaired electrons on a carbon atom, a nitrene has two unpaired electrons on a nitrogen atom. They are formed through the elimination of N2 from azo-compounds, RN2, and from azides, RN3 (Figure 4.34b). 

Hydrazines of the type R—N—N—R are easily oxidized to the corresponding azo compounds, R—N=N—R. With nitrous acid, monosubstituted hydrazines are converted to azides ...

The photoelimination of nitrogen from azo compounds, diazo compounds, and azides is a topic that has been thoroughly reviewed elsewhere. These transformations are found in oxygen and sulfur heterocycles, but as they are not unique to these systems, they will not be discussed in this article. Examples can be found in a review on the photochemistry of nitrogen-containing heterocycles.1...
