Procedure

2-Hydroxy-4-methyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester (495 mg, 2.66 mmol) was dissolved in THF (13 ml) and then diphenylphosphoryl azide (680 ul, 3.19 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (837 mg, 3.19 mmol) were added. The resulting solution was cooled in an ice bath and diethyl azodicarboxylate (502 ul, 3.19 mmol) was added. After stirring at room temperature for 20 hours, the solvents were removed and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (0% to 3% EtOAc/Hexane) to obtain 365 mg (65%) of 2-Azido-4-methyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester.
