Abstract

The synthesis of alkyl 2-phenylazocarboxylates largely depended on the stoichiometric use of toxic oxidants. The use of CuCl and DMAP as catalysts enables an environment-friendly aerobic oxidation of alkyl 2-phenylhydrazinecarboxylates to alkyl 2-phenylazocarboxylates under mild conditions.
