Mechanistic Studies of the Baeyer-Mills Reaction (A) Baeyer-Mills reactions to generate azobenzenes are complicated by the production of azoxybenzene via a proposed nitrosobenzene reduction pathway. (B) Purified nitrosobenzene does not form azoxybenzene through disproportionation. (C) The aniline component of a Baeyer-Mills reaction is not incorporated into the azoxybenzene side product. (D) An electron-rich aniline facilitates the formation of azoxybenzene from nitrosobenzene.
