Abstract

Anions generated from primary arylamines react with substituted nitrobenzenes to form σH-adducts, which, under basic reaction conditions, undergo transformation to N-aryl-2-nitroso­amines. Competitive substitution of reactive halogens in the nitro­arenes, which is observed in certain cases, can be controlled by the solvent selected.
