Abstract

Benzoyl nitroside (5) was generated in solution by laser photolysis of 3, 5-diphenyl-1, 2, 4- oxadiazole-4-oxide (4) and studied by time-resolved infrared spectroscopy. The second- order rate constants for reaction of 5 with diethylamine and 1, 3-cyclohexadiene were determined to be (1.3±0.5)× 105 M-1 s-1 and (6.0±0.5)× 103 M-1 s-1, respectively. The formation of nitroxyl (HNO), a product of the reaction of 5 with diethylamine, was also ...
