Azides are important intermediates in organic synthesis. They can function as precursors to form amines, amides, quinolones, pyridines, triazoles, amidines, indoles, and so on. Although there are some reviews about the applications of azides, few are concerned about their fundamental mechanisms. This review will focus on recent advances of azides based on three reactivity patterns, which may enlighten the further research.
