2-Arylazocarboxylate and 2-arylazocarboxamide derivatives can serve as replacements of typical Mitsunobu reagents such as diethyl azodicarboxylate. A systematic investigation of the reactivity and physical properties of those azo compounds has revealed that they have an excellent ability as Mitsunobu reagents. These reagents show similar or superior reactivity as compared to the known azo reagents and are applicable to the broad scope of substrates. pKa and steric effects of substrates have been investigated, and the limitation of the Mitsunobu reaction can be overcome by choosing suitable reagents from the library of 2-arylazocarboxylate and 2-aryl azocarboxamide derivatives. Convenient recovery of azo reagents is available by one-pot iron-catalyzed aerobic oxidation, for example. SC-DSC analysis of representative 2-arylazocarboxylate and 2-arylazocarboxamide derivatives has shown high thermal stability, indicating that these azo reagents possess lower chemical hazard compared with typical azo reagents.

An investigation of the recently reported "fully catalytic Mitsunobu reaction" using catalytic amounts of a phosphine reagent and an azo reagent has shown that although benzyl 4-nitrobenzoate is formed under the fully catalytic conditions, the same result is obtained if the hydrazine catalyst is omitted, indicating that this is not a Mitsunobu reaction. In addition, when the reaction between (-)-ethyl lactate and 4-nitrobenzoic acid was carried out using the "fully catalytic" method, the corresponding ester was formed but in very low yield and with predominant retention of configuration. Unfortunately, the system catalytic in phosphine reagent is incompatible with that in the azo reagent.

Aerobic recycling: A catalytic amount of a hydrazine reagent is sufficient to promote Mitsunobu reactions in the presence of triphenylphosphine, an iron catalyst, and air. The active form of the catalyst, an azo species, can be readily generated by iron-c
