Treatment of peracetylated 1-bromo-β-D-glycopyranosyl chlorides with sodium azide in DMSO or, better, under PTC conditions, led to the corresponding glycopyranosylidene 1,1-diazides, in fair to excellent yield. Tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucono-1,5-lactone was converted into the corresponding diazide in 57% yield on treatment with trimethylsilyl azide in the presence of boron trifluoride-diethyl ether complex.
