Reliable Protocol for the Large Scale Synthesis of Diphenylphosphoryl Azide (DPPA)

Abstract

The preparation of analytically pure diphenylphosphoryl azide (DPPA) in 100 g scale is described in detail resulting in a very reliable protocol starting with the corresponding phosphoryl chloride.

azides - phosphorus - rearrangement - transfer reagent - synthesis
