Chemistry & industry
Applications
UsesMethyl 2-azidoacetate is widely used as a precursor to build triazole derivatives via alkyne-azide click chemistry. Some of the examples include the synthesis of coumarin-triazole derivatives as potential antiplasmodial agents and macrocyclic triazole containing largazole analogs as histone deacetylases-1 (HDAC1) inhibitors.It can be used to synthesize various pyrrole derivatives by Knoevenagel condensation as in the synthesis of near-infrared boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) donors for organic tandem solar cells.It can also be used in Hemetsberger-Knittel synthesis of substituted 5-, 6-, and 7-azaindoles.Synthesis of highly fluorescent pyreno[2,1-b]pyrroles using methyl 2-azidoacetate as one of the reagents.
Preparation methods
PreparationAzidoacetic acid methyl ester is widely used in the azidoclick chemistry synthesis of triazole derivatives. Some examples include the synthesis of coumarin-triazole derivatives as potential antimalarial drugs and histone deacetylase-1 (HDAC1) inhibitors containing macrocyclic triazole compounds. It can be used to synthesize various pyrrole derivatives via Knoevenagel condensation, similar to its use in the synthesis of near-infrared bispyrrole (BODIPY) donors for organic tandem solar cells. It can also be used in the hemetsberg-knittel synthesis of substituted 5-, 6-, and 7-azaindole. Highly fluorescent pyrene [2,1-b]pyrrole can be synthesized using Azidoacetic acid methyl ester as a reagent.
