Diazo Transfer From Nitrous Oxide Employing Phosphorus Ylides

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A phosphorus ylide‐mediated strategy achieves the direct fixation of nitrous oxide (N2O) to access diazo compounds, which after intra‐ or intermolecular trapping, afford N2‐containing organic building blocks. This approach provides an alternative to hazardous diazo‐transfer reagents and establishes N2O fixation as a sustainable methodology.
