Abstract

A previous report that m-trifluoromethylnitrosobenzene, unlike other nitroso compounds substituted in the meta or para positions only, is highly dimerized is shown to be in error. The compound reported as m-trifluoromethylnitrosobenzene is found to be m- trifluoromethylaaoxybenzene. The true mtrifluoromethylnitrosobenzene gives no sign of dimer formation in solution. Spectrophotometric study of the monomer-dimer equilibrium in ...
