Russian Chemical Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

An electrochemical method for the synthesis of geminal azidonitro compounds was developed. The method involves electrooxidative coupling of azide anions with salts of nitro compounds and affords geminal azidonitroalkanes, azidonitrocycloalkanes, and diazidodinitrocycloalkanes in 45–92% yields.
