Free-radical reductions of arenediazonium ions in aqueous solution. Part I. Toluene-p-diazonium ions reduced with methanol

Abstract: M13 9PL 6oCo y-Radiation has been used to initiate the free-radical reduction reaction (i) and the mechanism is shown to be as in reactions (ii)-(iv), where reactions (ii) and (iii) are the propagating steps and reaction (iv) the terminating

“…aqueous methanol as the solvent, where reduction occurs with F ≈ 3.5-8. 13 Furthermore, the present reactions involve attack to nucleophilic, not electrophilic, olefins. We checked that generating the 4-nitrophenyl radical from 1a under the classical Meerwein conditions (CuCl 2 ) leads to arylation of acrylonitrile (forming the 3-phenyl-2-chloropropionitrile) but not of ATMS (product 6a 10%) and conversely photodecomposition of 1a in the presence of acrylonitrile does not lead to arylation, contrary to the case of ATMS.…”

“…CH 2 OH radical [18] . As this particular radical is known to be capable of reducing diazonium ions to aryl radicals and dinitrogen along with the formation of formaldehyde, an undesired reduction of the diazonium salt to the parent aromatic compound can basically occur in the presence of alcohols via these two steps in the sense of a chain reaction [27] …”

“…Incorporating a figure of 1·4 ϫ 10 5 dm 3 mol -1 [70] for the rate constant for attack of p-methylphenyl radical upon MeOH as approximately equal to k 59 , one obtains k 58 = 1·2 ϫ 10 7 dm 3 mol -1 s -1 at 298 K. Similar consideration of the decomposition of PAT in benzene, combined with the value of k 58 , yields a rate constant for the phenylation of benzene, eqn (61), of 7·8 ϫ 10 4 dm 3 mol -1 s -1 [69]: (61) These data, in turn, combined with earlier data concerning the spin trapping of radicals produced in the decomposition of benzoyl peroxide in benzene [71] yields a figure of 4 ϫ 10 7 dm 3 mol -1 s -1 for the trapping of PhCO 2 • by PBN at 313 K. A similar competition method was utilised in determining spin-trapping rates by tert-butoxyl radicals [72].…”
