text: Aliphatic alcohols give azides via a variant of the Mitsunobu reaction, with the use of hydrazoic acid. Hydrazines may also form azides by reaction with sodium nitrite: Alcohols can be converted into azides in one step using 2-azido-1,3-dimethylimidazolinium hexafluorophosphate (ADMP) or under Mitsunobu conditions with diphenylphosphoryl azide (DPPA).
