TY - JOUR AU - Prabhu, Kandikere Ramaiah AB - A wide range of primary azides have been efficiently oxidized by a catalytic amount of CuI and TBHP into their corresponding nitriles in aqueous solution. A variety of oxidizable functional groups were well tolerated under the reaction conditions, and oxidation of secondary azides furnished their corresponding ketones (see scheme; TBHP=tert‐butyl hydroperoxide).
