Question
Write the reactions of
- aromatic and
- aliphatic primary amines with nitrous acid.
✓
Answer
Aromatic primary amines react with $HNO_2$ at 273 – 278 K to form aromatic diazonium salts.
Aliphatic primary amines also react with $HNO_2$ at 273 – 278 K to form aliphatic diazonium salts. But these are unstable even at low temperature and thus decomposes readily to form a mixture of compounds consisting of alkyl chlorides, alkenes and alcohols, out of which alcohols generally predominates.
