Iodine azide was found to undergo monoaddition to alkyl-substituted alienes 8-11, producing regioselectively allyl azides that can undergo [3, 3]-rearrangement. Aliene itself is an exception and adds IN3 at room temperature to form a bisadduct, shown to have a gem-diazide structure and to be derived from a vinyl azide monoadduct. BrN3 tends to behave as an ionic reagent analogous to IN3 at-65 C, but at room temperature it adds to alienes in a free radical manner, leading to bisadducts which are unstable and can decompose explosively. The chemistry of the adducts was briefly explored.Previous work in these laboratories has shown that halogen azides usually add regio-and stereoselectively to alkenes, leading to adducts that are useful precursors to many functioned groups as well as to small and larger ring heterocycles. 2 A study of aliene substrates with these reagents is of interestnot only from the point of view of defining regiochemical and mechanisticfactors3 governing such additions to cumulative double bonds but also as potential syntheticroutes to methyleneazirines and me-thyleneaziridines. 4 For instance, ionic addition of halogen azide XN3 to aliene 1, if analogous to Br2 addition to this substrate, 5 should lead to 3, which might be a precursor to allenic azide 4 and hence to methyleneazirine 5. On the other hand free radical addition of XN3 to 1 could lead to 2, which as an allylic halide is expected to be converted by reduction or treatment with a phosphine6 to a methy-leneaziridine 6. Since we have shown that IN3 usually adds to olefinsvia a three-membered iodonium ion interme-diate, 7 while BrN3 can add either in an ionic or a free radical fashion, the latter being favored by nonpolar sol-vents, 21’we decided to examine the behavior of these halogen azides toward some alienes.
