Casting a new light on azide photochemistry: photolytic production of cyclic-N3
Literature Information
The first postulated structure of the N3 moiety appeared in a scientific journal in 1890 and was reported as a cyclic triangle with one N,N double bond and two N,N single bonds. Only in the last several years has our understanding of azides advanced to the point that we can now claim to know how to synthesize this prototypical bonding motif. This article examines the experiments and theory that were essential in reaching this point and suggests future directions of research on cyclic-N3.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
