Abstract:
Copper chemodosimeters: The copper(II)-promoted air oxidation of 1-3 to form 4-6 permits the highly selective colorimetric detection of Cu(2+) ions. The formation of copper(II) complexes of 4-6 proceeds rapidly, and the chemodosimeters 1-3 are viable at physiological pH.

1° Amines to Diazonium or Aryldiazonium Salts: Diazotization with NaNO2 Overview
The nitrous acid is unstable. Hence, it is formed in situ from a solution of sodium nitrite and cold aqueous acids such as hydrochloric or sulfuric acid. In an acidic solution, the –OH group of nitrous acid undergoes protonation to give oxonium ion, followed by water loss...
