Catalytic reduction of ortho- and para-azidonitrobenzenes via tert-butoxide ion mediated electron transferTools Carbone, Giorgio, Burnley, James and Moses, John E. (2013) Catalytic reduction of ortho- and para-azidonitrobenzenes via tert-butoxide ion mediated electron transfer. SYNLETT, 24 (5). pp. 652-656. ISSN 0936-5214 Full text not available from this repository.AbstractThe reduction of a range of substituted azidonitrobenzene derivatives to the corresponding aniline is described. The chemoselective reaction proceeds cleanly and in good yield, generating minimal waste products. The process involves a thiazolium salt derived species which is proposed as a radical anion relay, with tert-butoxide as the stoichiometric reductant.
