• alternative synthetic methodologies for functionalized 1,2-diazepines has drawn extensive attention [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. One of the most attractive strategies to synthesize the 1,2-diazepine motif represents the [4 + 3] cycloaddition reaction between activated azoalkenes and 1,3-dipolarophiles

• alkylations of amines and ammonia with azoalkenes (generated from α-halohydrazones) were demonstrated as an efficient approach to poly(hydrazonomethyl)amines – a novel class of polynitrogen ligands. An intramolecular cyclotrimerization of C=N bonds in tris(hydrazonomethyl)amine to the respective 1,4,6,10

• -tetraazaadamantane derivative was demonstrated.

• straightforward methodology based on multiple Michael-type additions of azoalkenes A (generated from α-halogen azacarbonyl precursor 1 [35][36][37][38][39]) to amines or ammonia (Scheme 1). Though the chemistry and synthetic potential azoalkenes A have been a subject of considerable interest in the recent years
