Thermal and photochemical reactions and the phase transition mechanisms of solid-state monomer-dimer interconversions of p-bromonitrosobenzene were studied on the basis of kinetics data and single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations. From the crystal structure and packing of p- bromobenzeneazodioxide and the previously determined structure of the freshly sublimed monomer, we have explained both consecutive steps in thermal dimerization. While the first reaction (formation of the metastable dimer) with first-order kinetics affords diminishing of the (2 2 0) critical crystal plane that intersects atoms of the nitroso groups, the second phase transformation step includes four critical planes, which show sigmoid kinetics. In the new phase growth, these crystal planes developed in two (Cartesian) dimensions as vectors perpendicular to ab and ac planes, which is in agreement with the dimensionality previously determined on the basis of the Avrami-Erofeyev analysis (with m = 2.01). Photochromic dissociation of the azodioxide at 100 K was followed by structure determination of the single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation. A new metastable monomer was discovered, in which, despite bond breaking, the nitrogen atoms of the neighboring monomers remained very close to each other (2.30 A), i.e., 23.3% closer than is the sum of two N-atom van der Waals radii. Such an extraordinary close contact was also observed between N and O atoms. This tight packing can explain why the return to dimerization after the low temperature photodissociation occurs so rapidly at a temperature as low as 170 K.

The synthesis of di(hetero)arylamines by a transition-metal-free cross-coupling between nitrosoarenes and boronic acids is reported. The procedure is experimentally simple, fast, mild, and scalable and has a wide functional group tolerance, including carbonyls, nitro, halogens, free OH and NH groups. It also permits the synthesis of sterically hindered compounds.

The para-selective direct bromination and chlorination of nitrosoarenes with copper(II) bromide and chloride is reported. Under mild reaction conditions, a range of halogenated arylnitroso compounds are obtained in moderate to good yields with high regioselectivity. Additionally, the versatility of the method is demonstrated by the development of a one-pot procedure to obtain the corresponding para-halogenated aniline- and nitrobenzene derivatives.
