DIAZO-COMPOUNDS AND THEIR DERIVATIVES, Ti hia already been atatod that when the amide-compounds or their salts are treated with nitrous acid in aqueous solution, thoy yield phenols; this decomposition, howover, astally takes place only on warming. If, far example, a well-cooled dilute solution of aniline hydrochloride (1 mol.) bo mixed ‘with sodium nitrite (1 mol), and hydrochloric acid (1 mol) ‘added to set free the nitrous acid, phenol is not pro ‘duced, and the solution contains a very unstable substance, called diaznlensene chloride, the formation of which may be ‘ekpressed by the equation SOHN Vy HCl + NOM = GjHyNENCI + 2110. Tr this respect, then, the anide-compounds dir fromthe fatty amines} the Itterareat once convert int aleahols by ittoan acil in the cold, wheres the former are first tran formed into diseocompotns which, usually only on wetming, decompose more or lew reedily with formation of ‘phenols (0.386) “All amido-compounds behave in this way, yielding diame sais similarly enditted to dazobensene chloride. ‘The dioaalteworo dieovered in 1860 by P.

Preparation —Anhydrous dizosslts may be obtained by ‘treating « woll-cooled solution of an amido-compoand in saboolute aleohol with amyl nitvite and a mineral acid, in ‘absence of any considerable quantity of wate, CHyNH,HO! + C,H,.0.N0 O,HyNNCL + C,H, OH + 10. Diacobensene sulphate, CiHeN:N-SO,k, for example, is pre rod by dissolving aniline (13 parts) in algolate aleohol (i0 pare), ssdding concentrated sulphuric. act (20 parts), tnd alter eoling in a freezing mixture, lowly running in pure amyl altte (20 sans); after 10-15 minutes diaabonzene nulphate separates te ‘egyeials, which ate washed with alobol and ether, ant tefed in ‘the air at ordinary temperatares Diasobensene chore and diacobensene nitrate may be obtained similar manner, employing. alcoholic solutions. of hydrogen ‘edlovite and of nitric acid inthe place of sulphuric acja, Diazobensens nitrite, CH-N-N-NO,, may also be conveniently Sbolatod ax follows: Aniline nitrate tstspented ina soll quantity (of water, and the fiquid saturated with aittons acid (generated from As,0, and HINO,), when the erjatals gradually dissolve with formation of diazobensene nfteate; on the addition of alcool and ether, this salt separates in colourless needles. Special precew ‘ions are to he observed in preparing this ubstance, as; when ity, itis highly explosive, although it may be haudled with safety kept moist. Aquoous solutions of the dinosalts are prepared by dis- the amido-compoand in an aqueous tuineral acid, and ‘ding the theoretical quantity of a solotion of sodium nitite, after firat cooling to 0° (see above, also p. 373). Propertics—The diazo-salts aro colourless, erystalline com- ‘Pounds, vory readily soluble in water; in tho dry state they fare more oF less explosive, and should be handled only with the grontest caution, They are of immense value in ayntheti- eal chemistry and in the preparation of dyes, as they mndergo ‘© number of remarkable reactions, of which the follpwing are ‘some of the mote important 313 piazo-CoMpousps AND THxIR DERIVATIVES, ‘When wat in agunoslton Sy dspone pil vil mast of afogon a fran poncl (386), GigNNNO, + HO » Gl,OH +N, + HNO, OCH) NNCL + M0 —GHACH).O# Ny + CL ace fa en biel eh arog aloha they yi hydnvaions ort ofthe dhol bing one lig, GHyNINCI 4 C,OH = GH, + Ny + HCL 4 C1,CHO, Thee two rocinns afd 2 meant of cinining phase to hydoebons fom andoconprnds Se Speuads bare rey miosis ay whee tenet wth eprom all; or etompl olin WrdasSboone chloe bo warned wih exrom ead Senet ted and shnsboane afte In thi wae te diavas combine, with Eh eros chide Tinet a inamolite owas sddtve compound, wich eet at Nghe. tenpontrey capri thinnest the mason sonnel Coy Ne + Coy 1h intend of he clad, exproas oie or ens snd he omploe,bomotsnane or indobonene inode, GHLNNBeCugbe, = Cle + Ny + Cody NNCI, CuCl, = GH,Cl + whereas by using cuprous eyanide, a cyanide or nitrile is formed, Gly Ny CN, Cuy(CN), = GjHyCN + N, + Ca,(CN), “adie Copa Phat] Case Tn this latter reaction a mixture of eupric sulphate and potassium cyanide is gonerally used instead of the previously prepared cuprous eyanide.
