Description
General description
Sodium azide is commonly used as a bacteriostatic?preservative for biological samples and also as a source to generate gas in automobile airbags.?It is also a metabolic inhibitor, which inhibits oxidative phosphorylation.
Application
Baylis-Hillman acetates such as ethyl 2-(acetoxyphenylmethyl)acrylate can undergo nucleophilic displacement by sodium azide in aqueous medium to form ethyl (E)-2-azidomethyl-3-phenylpropenoate.Catalyst for:
- Oxidative decarboxylation
- Michael addition reactions
Reagent for synthesis of
- Blue fluorescent copolymers
- Metal phosphonates
- Arenes via aminations
Involved in regioselective synthesis of prianosin B
