Abstract

Additional examples are given of the recently described reaction in which an aromatic nitro group and an adjacent ring hydrogen are replaced by a halogen and an alkoxy group, respectively, by treatment of certain aromatic nitro conipounds with aqueous sodium hypohalite in alkaline alcohol solution. Improved conditions are given for the reduction of benzofurazan oxides by copper and acid to give o-nitroanilines.
