The photolytic degradation of the diazo dye, Amido Black, using UV/H(2)O(2) has been carried out experimentally and parameters for most efficient dye degradation have been determined. The degradation of the dye was followed by UV-Vis spectroscopy, HPLC, and LC-MS and is proposed to be initiated by ()OH radicals formed by the photolysis of H(2)O(2). A detailed study was also carried out using LC-MS and LC-MS/MS to determine the degradation pathway of the dye as well as to identify some of the intermediate products formed. Our results suggest that Amido Black degradation occurs preferentially by ()OH radical attack at the more electron rich diazo functionality of the molecule. Furthermore, evidence is presented that subsequent steps in this diazo dye degradation pathway include radical denitration, radical desulfonation and radical diazotization. This report is one of the very few studies that have proposed possible mechanistic pathways for the degradation pathways of a diazo compound.

The construction of C-C bonds to form all-carbon quaternary centers remains a significant challenge in synthetic chemistry. Herein, we report a tandem process involving a 1,2-migration of a tetra-coordinated boron intermediate followed by a Claisen rearrangement of the boron enolate, achieved through a reaction between allyl diazoacetates and trialkylboranes. The transformation forms two C-C bonds at the carbenic position of diazo substrate in a single-step operation under neutral conditions.

A rhodium-catalyzed reaction of thioesters with diazo reagents was recognized as a powerful and unprecedented tool for single-atom molecular editing by the insertion of a single carbon atom into the C(O)─S thioester bond, thereby leading to various α-thioketones possessing a quaternary carbon atom. A selective and precise defunctionalization of the polyfunctionalized products further demonstrated the synthetic utility of the reaction for the synthesis of more common structural classes of compounds.

In this study, the readily available and inexpensive Sc(OTf) was utilized to activate ortho-benzoyl diazo compounds to in situ generate highly reactive cyclic 1,3-dipoles, which underwent a regioselective [4 + 3] cycloaddition with dioxopyrrolidines, yielding the [4.2.1]-oxabridged scaffolds bearing multiple contiguous quaternary carbon centers with high diastereoselectivities.

Diazo compounds are known to be good coupling partners in the synthesis of heterocycles, carbocycles and functionalized molecules a rhodium carbene-based strategy. Many heterocyclic and carbocyclic compounds, including isoquinolones and isocoumarins, quinoxalines, indoles, pyrrones, benzothazines, enaminones, benzenes and seven-membered rings, can be constructed using this rhodium-catalyzed system. The reaction mechanism involves C-H activation, carbene insertion and an annulation/functionalization sequence.

A copper catalyzed enantioselective formal aza-Diels-Alder reaction of formed 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes from α-halohydrazones and vinyl diazo compounds was described. The protocol provides a variety of optically enriched diazo-containing tetrahydropyridazines in moderate yields and with up to excellent enantioselectivities. The present methodologies utilize chiral oxazolines as the chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis and feature mild reaction conditions, readily available substrates, and broad substrate scope.
