General description
tert-Butyl nitrite (TBN) is an efficient NO source. TBN participates in photocatalyzed conversion of aryl- and heteroarylamines to selenides. It also participates in radical multifunctionalization reactions of aliphatic alkenes.
Application
tert-Butyl nitrite has been used as reagent:
- for diazotization and nitrosÂation of alcohols, thiols, amines and cycloalkanes
- for the preparation of aryl azides from aryl amines
