Bismuth(III) Chloride-Zinc Promoted Selective Reduction of Aromatic Nitro Compounds to Azoxy Compounds

In the presence of bismuth(III)chloride-metalllic zinc aromatic nitro compounds have been found to be selectively reduced inter and intramolecularly to the corresponding N-oxides at ambient temperature in high yields.

The Role of Titanium and Iron Complexes in the Deoxygenation of Aromatic Nitroso-compounds

Deoxygenation of aromatic nitroso-compounds RNO (R = Ph or biphenyl-2-yl) under very mild conditions by titanium(II) and titanium(III) derivatives such as , 2>, (cp = η5-C5H5), and TiCl3 led to the formation of oxo-complexes and the corresponding azo- and azoxy-organic compounds.Carbazole was not formed, suggesting a metal-controlled pathway for evolution of the plausible intermediate nitrene.Similar results have been obtained using N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneiminato)iron(II), , which was converted into 2O>.
