“…There is only a limited number of publications that focus on the reactivity of geminal aliphatic diazides 21 . In most reports, diazides 21 are only mentioned as by-products or proposed intermediates [31,34,35,47,63,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,74,75,76,77,78,79]. A few reports discuss thermodynamic and kinetic influences of the azido group on the stability of carbocations [80,81,82,83] and calculated structures of geminal diazides [84].…”
