An environmentally benign, copper-catalyzed diazidation of a broad range of olefins, including vinylarenes, unactivated alkenes, allene, and dienes, under mild conditions with TMSN3 (trimethylazidosilane) as azido source, has been developed. This reaction can be carried out in organic solvent or in aqueous solution where water is the sole solvent. The functional group compatibility of this reaction is good, which is proved by late-stage functionalizations of complex substrates.
