Abstract
Equimolar amounts of sodium azide dissolved in water were reacted with organic nitriles dissolved in an organic solvent and loaded with 10 mol% of the title complex. Efficient production of the tetrazolate anion was observed in the aqueous phase especially for nitriles that are insoluble in water.
