Abstract

Abstract We investigated the effects of solvent composition, acidity, and temperature on the dediazoniation of 4-methylbenzenediazonium (4MBD) ions in EtOH/H 2 O mixtures by employing a combination of spectrometric and chromatographic techniques. First-order behavior is found in all solvent composition ranges. HPLC Analyses of the reaction mixtures indicate that three main dediazoniation products are formed depending on the particular ...
