Isolation of anhydrous hydrazine as stable inclusion complexes with hydroquinone and p-methoxyphenol, and their solid state reaction with esters which gives pure hydrazides

Abstract

Anhydrous hydrazine is isolated in a pure state as a stable inclusion complex crystal with hydroquinone or p-methoxyphenol, the X-ray structures of which have been analysed; the solid-state reaction of the hydrazine inclusion complex and esters gives hydrazides which are virtually uncontaminated with acid hydrazine salt byproducts.
