General description

Hydrazobenzene has been prepared by the reduction of azobenzene by SmI(2) in THF.
Hydrazobenzene is an intermediate in the hydrogenation of azoxybenzene to aniline.

Application

Reactant involved in:
  • Insertion reactions with organometallic tantalum complexes
  • Reduction reactions catalyzed by titanium(III) trichloride yielding amines
  • Studying the mechanism of hydrazobenzene rearrangement
  • Reaction with N-heterocyclic stable silylene
  • Synthesis of dimanganese amide hydrazide cluster complexes
  • Iron-mediated hydrazine reductions yielding iron arylimide cubanes

Other Notes

Contains varying amounts of azobenzene

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the simultaneous determination of azobenzene, hydrazobenzene, and four other decomposition products in phenylbutazone injectable formulations. Separation was achieved on a C18 column, with 0.1 M Tris-citrate buffer (pH 5.25) and acetonitrile (52:48)

A quantitative model of mixed-valence excited-state spectroscopy is developed and applied to 2,3-diphenyl-2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane. The lowest-energy excited state of this molecule arises from a transition from the ground state, where the charge is located on the hydrazine bridge, to an excited
