Two fast and mild methodologies to prepare nitrophenyl and fluorophenyl azides are presented. These aryl azides are extensively used as crosslinking, photoaffinity labeling, and click chemistry reagents. Substituted aryl azides are prepared by performing a SNAr substitution on halogenated benzenes with a phase-transfer catalyst (PTC) such as tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TEATFB), the reaction proceeds in several hours under rather mild temperatures (25°C to 70°C). Furthermore, aryl azides are also prepared within minutes under microwave irradiation at slightly higher temperatures (50°C to 70°C). These procedures could be applied in the preparation of other aryl azides. In the case of substituted pentafluoro benzene (pF), the type of products obtained in each reaction depends on the amount of sodium azide and the strength and position of electron-withdrawing substituents (COH, COR, COOR, CN, NO2, or F). A discussion on the mechanisms and the products obtained in these SNAr reactions is presented.

We report a fast Staudinger reaction between perfluoroaryl azides (PFAAs) and aryl phosphines, which occurs readily under ambient conditions. A rate constant as high as 18 m?1 s?1 was obtained between methyl 4-azido-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoate and methyl 2-(diphenylphosphanyl)benzoate in CD3CN/D2O. Furthermore, the iminophosphorane product was stable toward hydrolysis and aza-phosphonium ylide reactions. This PFAA Staudinger reaction proved to be an excellent bioothorgonal reaction. PFAA-derivatized mannosamine and galactosamine were successfully transformed into cell-surface glycans and efficiently labeled with phosphine-derivatized fluorophore-conjugated bovine serum albumin.

The reactivities of enamines and predistorted (strained) dipolarophiles toward perfluoroaryl azides (PFAAs) were explored experimentally and computationally. Kinetic analyses indicate that PFAAs undergo (3 + 2) cycloadditions with enamines up to 4 orders of magnitude faster than phenyl azide reacts with these dipolarophiles. DFT calculations were used to identify the origin of this rate acceleration. Orbital interactions between the cycloaddends are larger due to the relatively low-lying LUMO of PFAAs. The triazolines resulting from PFAA-enamine cycloadditions rearrange to amidines at room temperature, while (3 + 2) cycloadditions of enamines and phenyl azide yield stable, isolable triazolines. The 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of norbornene and DIBAC also show increased reactivity toward PFAAs over phenyl azide but are slower than enamine-azide cycloadditions.
