Abstract

We report here an efficient method for the synthesis and characterization of [H-NMP] HSO4 and its application as an efficient catalyst and solvent for preparation of azides from corresponding alcohols under mild conditions. This processor showed high chemoselectivity for conversion of various alcohols to their corresponding azides.
