Simple one-pot protocols for the syntheses of α-bromoketones and α-azidoketones starting from olefins have been developed by employing catalytic oxidation of the intermediary bromohydrins with in situ-generated modified IBX as the key reaction. The improved procedure involves initial formation of bromohydrin by the reaction of olefin with NBS in acetonitrile-water mixture (1:1) at rt followed by oxidation with in situ-generated 3,4,5,6-tetramethyl-2-iodoxybenzoic acid (TetMe-IBX), produced in catalytic amounts from 3,4,5,6-tetramethyl-2-iodobenzoic and Oxone. α-Bromoketones are further converted in the same pot to the corresponding α-azidoketones using NaN3/NaHCO3. The one-pot conversions are versatile for a variety of olefins that include cyclic as well as acyclic aliphatic olefins and electron-rich and electron-deficient styrenes. Chemoselective bromohydroxylation of electron-rich double bond and subsequent oxidation to the α-bromoketone is demonstrated for a substrate that contains both electron-rich and deficient double bonds.

The copper(II)-promoted free-radical oxidative difunctionalization of terminal alkenes to access ketoazides by utilizing molecular oxygen has been reported. A series of styrene derivatives have been evaluated and were found to be compatible to give the desired difunctionalized products in moderate to good yields. The role of molecular oxygen both as an oxidant and oxygen atom source in this catalytic transformation has been unquestionably demonstrated by 18O-labeling studies and a radical mechanistic pathway involving the oxidative formation of azidyl radicals is also designed. This environment-friendly catalytic oxidative protocol can transform aldehyde to nitrile.

Irradiation of azido carbonyl compounds using UV light (≥310 nm) produced triplet alkyl nitrenes and aroyl radicals, which resulted in efficient cleavage of single strand DNA at pH 7.0. DNA cleaving ability of azido carbonyl compounds was found to be dependent on its concentration and substituents on its aromatic ring. Further, newly synthesized naphthalene based azido carbonyl compounds showed DNA cleavage ability at longer wavelength of UV light (≥350 nm) and also binding studies revealed that they bind to ct-DNA by weak intercalation mode.
