Description

2-Azido-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (ADT) was reported recently as a new "intrinsically safe" diazo transfer reagent. This assessment was based on Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) data indicating that ADT exhibits endothermic decomposition. We present DSC data on ADT that show exothermic decomposition with an initiation temperature (Tinit) of 159 °C and an enthalpy of decomposition of -1135 J/g (-207 kJ/mol). We conclude that ADT is potentially explosive and must be treated with caution, being comparable to tosyl azide (TsN3). A maximum recommended process temperature for ADT is 55 °C.
