General description

Azidobenzene is an aromatic azide generally used in copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reactions.
Azidobenzene solution can undergo click reaction with alkyne-functionalized oligomers to form O-ester-functionalized o-phenylenes, a group of aromatic foldamers with a good folding tendency in most solvents.

Application

Phenylazide in greener solvent, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF).

The electrochemical reduction of phenylazide or phenylacetylene diazonium salts leads to the grafting of azido or ethynyl groups onto the surface of carbon electrodes. In the presence of copper(I) catalyst, these azide- or alkyne-modified surfaces react efficiently and rapidly with
