a

Conditions: toluene, reflux, 1–2 h (except for entry 1: CHCl3, reflux, 4 h).

b

Equilibrium ratio as determined by NMR analysis of purified allylic azides; compounds attained equilibrium over 1 week at room temperature.11

c

Ratio determined by NMR analysis of crude reaction mixtures.

d

The relative stereochemistry of triazoles 18a and 18b was confirmed by X-ray crystallography (Supporting Information).

e

Inseparable mixture.
