CAS 622-79-7
:Benzyl azide
Description:
Benzyl azide is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an azide functional group (-N3) attached to a benzyl group (C6H5CH2-). Its molecular formula is C7H8N3, and it has a molecular weight of approximately 136.16 g/mol. Benzyl azide is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. It is known for its reactivity, particularly in click chemistry applications, where it can participate in cycloaddition reactions, such as the Huisgen reaction with alkynes to form 1,2,3-triazoles. The compound is relatively stable under normal conditions but can be sensitive to heat and shock, necessitating careful handling. Benzyl azide is soluble in organic solvents like ether and dichloromethane but has limited solubility in water. Due to its azide group, it can pose safety hazards, including potential explosiveness under certain conditions, making it essential to follow appropriate safety protocols when working with this compound in laboratory settings.
