Substrate-directed ortho C-H amination of azoarenes using TMSN3 as the source of nitrogen leading to the synthesis of 2-aryl-2H-benzotriazoles has been accomplished with the help of Pd/TBHP combinations. An intermolecular o-azidation (C-N bond formation) followed by an intramolecular N-N bond formation via nucleophilic attack of one of the azo nitrogen onto the o-azide nitrogen leads to cyclization with the expulsion of N2.
