Staudinger Reaction
Reaction involves in the conversion of azides into amines by treatment with phosphine and water is called Staudinger Reaction.
Azide react with phosphines to form iminophosphorane which on hydrolysis to give primary amines.
Mechanism of Staudinger Reaction
The possible mechanism is given below-Azide react with phosphines to form iminophosphorane which on hydrolysis to give primary amines.
