Aqueous sodium hydroxide reacts with sulphonyl>acetic acid (1) to give 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene and 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene as the main products, while in 50percent water-dioxane medium the products are 4,4'-dihydroxymethylazoxybenzene, 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene besides 4-carboxy, 4'-hydroxymethylazoxybenzene and its isomer. 4-Nitrosobenzaldehyde is an intermediate in this reaction which via a Cannizzaro reaction gives the reaction products.Other 2-, 3- and 4-nitrobenzyl sulphones are studied.
