The catalytic decarboxylative nitrogenation of aliphatic carboxylic acids for the synthesis of alkyl azides is reported. A series of tertiary, secondary, and primary organoazides were prepared from easily available aliphatic carboxylic acids by using K2S2O8 as the oxidant and PhSO2N3 as the nitrogen source. The EPR experiment sufficiently proved that an alkyl radical process was generated in the process, and DFT calculations further supported the SET process followed by a stepwise SH2 reaction to afford azide product.Crystalline, thre
