Abstract
The reactions of DPPH with Cl 2, NO 2 and F 2 were studied. In the para-phenyl position substituted diphenylpicrylhydrazines were formed. Besides this, the reaction of halogens led to products which were nitro-substituted in the para-phenyl position. Thus, it was shown that the reactions of halogens and halogen radicals with DPPH include a substitution at the picryl group of DPPH and its derivatives under liberation of NO 2. By ESR in situ spectroscopy and computational analysis of spectra, nitro-, dinitro-, fluoro- and difluoro-diphenylpicrylhydrazyls were identified as transient intermediates. In the formation of these species nitrogen dioxide and fluorine act as oxidants for the corresponding substituted hydrazines.
