Oxidations of Aromatic Amines by Superoxide Ion

Superoxide ion acts as a mild and highly selective oxidizing agent for aromatic amines.Aniline and α-naphthylamine were not oxidized, but β-naphthylamine formed dibenzophenazine, dibenzophenazine and 2,2'-azonaphthalen-1-ol. o- and p-Diamines are oxidized to diaminoazobenzenes but m-diamines are unreactive.Similarly o- and p-aminophenols are oxidized to dihydroxyazobenzenes but m-aminophenols are unaffected, and o-mercaptoaniline forms the disulfide.The oxidations are considered to be free-radical processes, initiated by hydrogen abstraction by superoxide from the substrates.The biological significance of the results is discussed.
