Preparation
It can be prepared by partial reduction of nitrobenzene. This reaction is proposed to proceed via the intermediacy of phenylhydroxylamine and nitrosobenzene:[1]
- PhNHOH + PhNO → PhN(O)NPh + H2O
gollark: Fascinating.
gollark: JS has even infiltrated low-level programming.
gollark: It's CONSISTENTLY apioforming your binaries?
gollark: You may notice the button on the left.
gollark: The issue is that that being popped up and looking like that looks bad.
