Reduction of Azides. Carbohydrate azides are valuable intermediates for the synthesis of amino sugars. This transformation is
commonly brought about by catalytic reduction.7 or by treatment
with Lithium Aluminum Hydride8 or Sodium Borohydride9
Ohrui and Emoto discovered that Zn/aq DMF is an excellent
reagent to reduce an azide group to the corresponding amine group
(eq 6).10 This reaction was complete in 45 min whereas the corresponding sodium borohydride reduction required 2030 h.
