Abstrakt: [reaction: see text] A five-step synthesis of an azido-thalidomide analogue is presented. The sequence requires cheap and readily available starting materials and reagents, and only two steps require purification. Additionally, the azido-labeled analogue possesses activity comparable to that of thalidomide in inhibiting the proliferation of human microvascular endothelial cells, thus providing impetus for its use as a potential photoaffinity label of thalidomide.
