Displacement of a nitro-group from 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl in its reaction with 2,4,6-tri-t-butylbenzenethiol
Abstract
The reaction of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) with 2,4,6-tri-t-butylbenzenethiol yields bis-(2,4,6-tri-t-butylphenyl) disulphide, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydra zine (DPPH-H), and a derivative of DPPH-H in which nitro-group has been replaced by a 2,4,6-tri-t-butylphenylthio-group.
