Abstract

Solvent, nucleophile strength, and substituents on the phenyl ring modified the yield of aromatic halogenation using 1 -aryl-3,3-dialkyltriazenes (2a-f) and halide ion in anhydrous acidic media. ... We report herein the first observation that the yields of aro- matic halogenation using I -aryl-3,3-dialkyltriazenes (2a-f) and halide ion inanhydrousacidic media depend stronglyupon the competing homolytic cleavage of the aryl-nitrogen bond. ... In an effort to analyse the ...
