JU, Y., D. KUMAR, AND R. S. VARMA. REVISITING NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION REACTIONS: MICROWAVE-ASSISTED SYNTHESIS OF AZIDES, THIOCYANATES AND SULFONES IN AQUEOUS MEDIUM. C. Dale Poulter (ed.), JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY. American Chemical Society, Washington, DC, 71(17):6697-6700, (2006).

Description:

A practical, rapid and efficient microwave (MW) promoted synthesis of various azides, thiocyanates and sulfones, is described in aqueous medium. This general and expeditious MW-enhanced nucleophilic substitution approach uses easily accessible starting materials such as halides or tosylates in reaction with alkali azides, thiocyanates or sulfinates in the absence of any phase transfer catalyst and a variety of reactive functional groups are tolerated.
