General description

Ethyl azidodifluoroacetate is a fluoroalkyl azide reagent active in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (click reaction). This reagent allows the unique functionality to afford the transformation of amine substrates to their amide analog, followed by the subsequent click reaction to form amide-triazole functionalities.
