Effect of Substituent in Diazotized Orthanilic Acid on the Azo Coupling with 7-Acetylamino-4-hydroxynaphthalene-2-sulfonic Acid in Citrate-Phosphate Buffers

Effect of substituent in the para position with respect to the diazo group in diazotized orthanilic acid derivatives on the rate and selectivity of azo coupling with 7-acetylamino-4-hydroxynaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid was studied in citrate-phosphate buffers. The selectivity of azo coupling at the 3-position of the azo component almost does not depend on the nature of electron-donor substituent. Electron-acceptor groups considerably reduce the selectivity of formation of the 3-isomer. Previous conclusions, according to which the rate-determining stages are different depending on the site of azo coupling of diazotized orthanilic acid with 7-acetylamino-4-hydroxynaphthalene-2-sulfonic acid, were found to be also valid for some 5-substituted orthanilic acid derivatives. The rate-determining stage in the azo coupling at the 3-position can change upon introduction of strong electron-acceptor substituents capable of interacting with the diazo group. The contribution of the multicenter mechanism of deprotonation of the -complex with participation of water molecules was presumed to increase in going to the diazo components having electron-donor substituents.     

Investigations in the field of imidazo[1,2-a]benzimidazole

The nitrosation and azo coupling reactions in the imidazo[1,2-a]benzimidazole series have been studied. Position 3 of the system undergoes attack. The nitroso compounds readily undergo hydrolysis in acid and alkaline media at the 1–2 bond with the formation of derivatives of benzimidazolone or 2-iminobenzimidazoline.For Communication II, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii.Vol. 6, No. 7, pp. 977–980, July, 1970.     

Azo‐Coupling Reactions Used in Analytical Chemistry: The Role of Reactants,Intermediates, and Aqueous Medium

A quantum‐chemical study of the analytically important azo‐coupling reactions of naphthalen‐1‐amine ( 1 ) with naphthalene‐1‐diazonium ( 2 ) and 4‐sulphobenzenediazonium ( 8 ) cations has been carried out. The reactions have been found to be frontier‐controlled, and their regioselectivity is unequivocally determined by the thermodynamics of the intermediate σ‐complexes, as well as by the aqueous medium. The latter defines high positional selectivity, providing the decision between two possible reaction routes predicted on the basis of quantum‐chemical computations for separate molecular systems. As a result, azo coupling occurs at the 4‐ rather than at the 2‐position of 1 . Furthermore, the aqueous medium makes the selection of analytical forms – protonated azo‐coupling products with a quinonehydrazone‐type structure.     

Electrophilic substitution in N-aryl-2-pyrazolines. 4. Azo coupling reactions

4-R-Phenyldiazonium chlorides enter into the azo coupling reaction with 2-pyrazoline derivatives at the para position of the N-aromatic nucleus.

Indolopyridines with a hetero atom at a position of fusion. 6. Electrophilic substitution in indolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline

Nitration, halogenation, azo coupling, aminomethylation, hydroxymethylation, and acylation reactions of indolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline in a neutral or weakly acid medium gave derivatives at the C₍₁₁₎ position (the pyrrole ring).

Determination of aniline by adsorptive stripping voltammetry using an improved diazotization and coupling procedure application to the evaluation of the light degradation of D&C red no. 33 in the presence of ascorbic acid

A method for the determination of aniline was developed, based on the diazotization and coupling of the aromatic amine to form an azo compound capable of being determined by adsorptive stripping voltammetry. A fast derivatization procedure was developed using 1-naftol as the coupling agent. A detection limit of 0.8 mug/l was obtained for aniline, using an accumulation time of 2 min. The method was applied in the determination of the amount of aniline in the colouring matter D&C Red No. 33, after a liquid-liquid extraction with chloroform, before and after submitting the colouring matter to a process of degradation, using accelerated light conditions in the presence of ascorbic acid.     

Synthesis,characterization, and dyeing performance of some azo thienopyridine and thienopyrimidine dyes based on wool and nylon

A string of novel heterocyclic mono azo dyes were synthesized and their utilization in dyeing different fabrics as wool and nylon were discussed. Thienopyridine azo dyes 4 and 6 were prepared by reaction of chloro acetamidederivative 2 with diamino compounds to yield 3 and 5 , followed by reaction with NaNO₂/HCl and coupling with nucleophilic reagent. One-pot reaction of chloro acetamide 2 with ammonium thiocyanat in solvent ethanol gave the unexpected thienopyrimidine derivative 7 , which contain two active sites, the former is primary amine that was able to form diazonium salt that coupled with N,N-dimethylaniline, resorcinol, and/or self-coupling to afford the azo dyes 8-10 , and the latter is active methylene group that underwent coupling with different diazonium salts to give the azo thienopyrimidine derivative dye 11-15 . The dyeing performance of these azo dyes had been investigated in terms of their dyeing behavior and fastness properties on different fabrics. Results showed that the color strength (K/S) values, as well as, washing, rubbing, and resistance to acid, alkali and light showed high efficiency of these heterocyclic mono azo dyes to dye wool rather than nylon fibers.     

Synthesis and reactivity of furazanyl- and furoxanyldiazonium salts

Diazotization of aminofurazans (1) and 4-aminofuroxans (2) with nitrosylsulfuric acid in a mixture of conc. H₂SO₄ and H₃PO₄ has been studied and offered as a general method for preparing furazanyl- (3) and furoxanyldiazonium (4) salts. It has been shown that reactions with the retention of the N-N-group (azo coupling, formation of triazenes and azides) are typical of salts3 and4, while elimination of the N₂ molecule (Sandmeyer reaction, hydrolysis, reduction) is not typical.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Crystal structures of selected products have also been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction.     

13C NMR spectra of non-labelled and 15N-mono-labelled azo dyes

¹³C NMR spectra of four types of azo coupling products from benzenediazonium chloride have been measured and interpreted, viz. hydrazo compounds with an intramolecular hydrogen bond (3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole-4,5-dione 4-phenylhydrazone), azo compounds without an intramolecular hydrogen bond (4-hydroxyazobenzene), azo compounds with an intramolecular hydrogen bond (2-hydroxy-5-tert-butylazobenzene) and an equilibrium mixture of both the tautomers of 1-phenylazo-2-naphthol. The absolute values of the J(¹⁵N¹³C) coupling constants have been determined by recording the spectra of the ¹⁵N isotopomers, and have been used, in some cases, for ¹³C signal assignment. A relationship has been found between the chemical shifts of the C-1′ to C-4′ carbons of the phenyl group (from the benzenediazonium ion) or the ¹J(¹⁵N¹³C) coupling constant, and the composition of the tautomeric mixture.     

Investigation of the electrophilic reactions of 2-benzyl-3-hydroxypyridine and its N-oxide

A comparative investigation of the aminomethylation, azo coupling, and iodination of 2-benzyl-3-hydroxypyridine and its N-oxide has shown that the N-oxide group affects the orientation of iodination but does not affect the direction of aminomethylation and azo coupling.

A New Approach for the Voltammetric Determination of Amoxicillin in the Dosage Form Using Azo Coupling Reaction with Sulphanilamide

The novel method of amoxicillin (AM) determination has been developed using single-sweep polarography. The proposed method is based on the obtaining of yellow coloured azo compound due to azo coupling reaction of previous diazotized sulphanilamide (SA) (in the medium of 0.6 M hydrochloric acid) with amoxicillin at pH=9.0 with the further reduction of the formed analytical form on a dropping mercury electrode. Voltammetric determination of amoxicillin is carried out due to the reduction peak of azo group of the obtained azo compound in the presence of 0.05 mol ⋅ L⁻¹ Na₂B₄O₇ as a background electrolyte at the potential E_c^p2=−0.55 V and potential sweep rate of 2.5 V ⋅ s⁻¹. The developed voltammetric method has two linear ranges of the determined concentrations (0.05–2.0) ⋅ 10⁻⁵ mol ⋅ L⁻¹ and (0.2–1.0) ⋅ 10⁻⁴ mol ⋅ L⁻¹ and the high sensitivity: LOD without the removing of unreacted sodium nitrite is 1.1 ⋅ 10⁻⁶ mol ⋅ L⁻¹, and 7.2 ⋅ 10⁻⁷ mol ⋅ L⁻¹, when NaNO₂ excess is removed using urea. The developed voltammetric technique of AM determination has been approved during the analyses of tablets and oral suspension.
