In recent past, dialkyl azodicarboxylates have been embraced as versatile reagents in synthetic strategies other than Mitsunobu reactions. These azo compounds have been utilized as an oxidant or dehydrogenating reagent in oxidative transformations, such as cross dehydrogenative coupling, oxidative Ugi‐type reaction, dehydrogenation etc . Moreover, they have been utilized in different types of bond construction like C‐Heteroatom (C‐Het) and S−N bond. Very recently, these azo compounds have also been explored in photochemical reactions. Such types of reported reactions and their reaction pathways are presented here in this minireview, which manifested the oxidative abilities and advantageous features of dialkyl azodicarboxylates.
