11-azidoundecan-1-ol

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a 250 mL round-bottom dry flask was added anhydrous DMF (60 mL), 11 bromo-1-undecanol (10 g, 39.8 mmol) and NaN3 (2.85 g, 43.8 mmol). The solution was stirred with a magnetic bar for 24 hours at ambient temperature and quenched with DI water (60 mL). The solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×40 mL), re-extracted with DI water (2×50 mL), dried with sodium sulfate overnight, and filtered. After the removal of the solvent by a rotoevaporator, a clear, colorless liquid (9.1 g, 93.4%) was obtained. quenched with DI water (60 mL) The solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×40 mL) re-extracted with DI water (2×50 mL) dried with sodium sulfate overnight filtered After the removal of the solvent by a rotoevaporator
