Problems and exercisesReactivity
1. Diazonium salts
Starting from aniline, how would you prepare each compound?
- Phenol
- Bromobenzene
- Benzonitrile
- Fluorobenzene
- Benzene
2. Use the amino group and remove it
Propose a synthesis of 1,3,5-tribromobenzene from aniline.
3. Why aromatic diazonium salts?
Why are arenediazonium salts useful in synthesis at 0 °C, while alkanediazonium salts decompose at once?
