59. Many azides have hazardous behavior and some of them are potential energetic materials (see: Badgujar, D. M.; Talawar, M. B.; Asthana, S. N.; Mahulikar, P. P. J. Hazard. Mater. 2008, 151, 289-305.). Although we did not encounter any danger in our experiment, the caution about the potential hazardous behavior of azides should be indicated.
