Abstract

A several year old sample of bis (2-nitro-4-chlorobenzenediazonium) tetrachlorozincate (1) was observed in our laboratory to have an altered composition of undetermined nature which we shall call product A. During our general reagent survey, product A demonstrated unusually good properties and performance characteristics for the bilirubin test in stark contrast to newly purchased samples of 1. In order to simulate aging effects, new samples ...
