Curtius Rearrangement of ω-Azido Acid Chlorides: Access to the Corresponding ω-Azido Substituted Amines and Carbamates, Useful Building Blocks for Polyamine Syntheses

Abstract
Treatment of ω-azido acid chlorides with trimethylsilyl azide affords ω-azido isocyanates which can be easily converted in good yields to the corresponding ω-azidoamines or ω-azidocarbamates. 1,3- and 1,4-Diamine dihydrochlorides can then be prepared by catalytic hydrogenation or reductive alkylation with an organodichloroborane.
