Reduction of aromatic azo-,azoxy- and nitro-compounds by ultrasonically activated nickel

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919908086480

Substituted hydrazobenzenes were obtained in excellent yields from reduction of the corresponding azo- or azoxy- compounds by hydrazine hydrate under the catalysis of ultrasonically activated nickel (UAN). Reduction of nitroarenes by UAN produced azoxyarenes as the major products.
