Procedure

The identical reduction of o-nitrotoluene as described in example 5 was carried out except 68 g of absolute methanol was used in place of the 95% ethanol. The reduction products were isolated using the same procedures and a 54% yield of o-hydrazotoluene was recovered.

Workup

  1. customThe reduction products were isolated
