4-Aminophenol → 4-Azidophenol

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Azidophenol was prepared similarly to 3-azidophenol, using 4-aminophenol (5.0 g) instead of 3-aminophenol. This gave 5.27 g (85% yield) of a dark red oil. 1H NMR (acetone-d6, 300 MHz, ppm): 8.48 (s, 1H, Ar—OH), 6.94 (m, 4H, Ar—H). 13C NMR (MeOD-d4, 75 MHz, ppm): 156.4, 132.4, 121.1, 117.7. FT-IR (cm−1): 3372, 2113, 2072.
