Abstract

N-Unsubstituted hydrazones of some aromatic ketones and aldehydes were found to react with lead tetraacetate giving the corresponding diazo compounds as primary reaction products, and the derived 1-monoacetoxy- and 1,1-diacetoxy-1-arylalkanes, as well as azines, as final products. The yields obtained depend on the stability of the diazo compound initially formed and on the experimental conditions employed (amount of lead tetraacetate, presence of acid or base). Mechanisms for the formation of products are discussed.
