A single reagent, i.e. n-butyl nitrite, can be used to oxidize an aromatic amine, or the corresponding N-methylene derivative, to a diazo compound followed by its subsequent reduction to hydrocarbon in a single batch.Alternatively, a chloro derivative can be obtained if carbon tetrachloride is used as the solvent.The reactions appear to be general and complete product identification was accomplished.
