Avoiding hazards : Cu 2 (OTf) 2 ⋅C 6 H 6 (OTf=O 3 SCF 3 ) is the catalyst of choice for the [3+2] cycloaddition of organic azides and ethyl cyanoformate or related nitriles (see scheme; PG=protecting group, EWG=electron‐withdrawing group). For the first time, tetrazoles are obtained from these substrates at room temperature; heating at 80 °C in CH 2 Cl 2 (microwave reactor) is only required for the most reluctant substrates.
