Abstract
Different behaviors of aromatic and nonaromatic amines with respect to a change in the structure of the salt and variations in the reaction conditions were revealed in a study of the reaction of 2-arylazobenzimidazolium quaternary salts with amines. Aliphatic and secondary cyclic amines react at comparable rates via pathways involving cleavage of the azo group and replacement of the hydrogen in the para position relative to the azo group. The reaction with aromatic amines proceeds primarily via the amination pathway, and a methyl group in the meta position relative to the azo group facilitates replacement of the hydrogen atom significantly.
