Azoxybenzenes (1) were heated at 245–250 °C to give azobenzenes (2), 2-hydroxyazobenzenes (3), 2-hydroxy-azoxybenzenes (4), 4-hydroxyazobenzenes (5), and 4-hydroxyazoxybenzenes (6). Compounds 4 and 6 were mostly composed of α-isomers. In the reaction of azoxytoluenes, their methyl groups were oxidized to formyl groups. It was proposed that 4 and 6 were the intermediates of the thermal rearrangement

nitrobenzene derivatives with transition-metaloxalates, but not in their absence. Traces of primary amines were isolated occasionally. The formation of the azo- and azoxy-benzenes was shown to be an intermolecular process. It is suggested that the results are best explained in terms of a nitreneintermediate bound to the surface of the metal derivative. The reaction of some nitrosobenzene derivatives

The lithiation of halogenated azobenzenes by halogen–lithium exchange commonly leads to substantial degradation of the azo group to give hydrazine derivatives besides the desired aryllithium species. Yields of quenching reactions with electrophiles are therefore low. This work shows that a transmetalation reaction of easily accessible stannylated azobenzenes with methyllithium leads to a near‐quantitative
