Preparation of Some 2-(Methoxyphenyl)-2H-benzotriazoles and the Corresponding Hydroxyphenyl Compounds

The reaction of several substituted o-nitronitrosobenzenes with o- and p-anisidine, and 2,4-dimethoxyaniline in acetic acid gives in good yield the corresponding o-nitroazobenzenes which are readily reduced with thiourea dioxide (formamidinesulfinic acid) to the corresponding 2-(methoxyphenyl)-2H-benzotriazoles, demethylation of which furnished the corresponding 2-(hydroxyphenyl)-2H-benzotriazoles.Demethylation of the dimethoxy derivatives was best accomplished with boron tribromide in methylene chloride, the methoxy group located ortho to the benzotriazole ring beingdemethylated more readily than is the para-methoxy group.The reaction of 0-nitroazobenzenes containing a methoxy group with hydrobromic acid in acetic acid results in cleavage of the azo bond and also partial bromination to give o-nitroaniline and some of its brominated derivatives.

BASIC PROPERTIES OF 4-ARYLAZO-PHENOLS AND 4-ARYLAZO-ANISOLES

The conditions in which 4-arylazo-phenols and 4-arylazo-anisoles have basic properties have been studied.We have also determined the equilibrium constants of the reactions between 4-arylazo-phenols or 4-arylazo-anisoles with perchloric acid in nitromethane, acetonitrile and acetic acid.Conclusions have been drawn from the influence of the nature of solvent and substituent at the benzene ring on equilibrium constant values.
