Description

Chlorinating agents are used in the production of pharmaceutical preparations and other chemical products. They react with amines to form diazonium salts, which can then be reduced to azo compounds. N-Chlorosuccinimide is a chlorinating agent that reacts with amines to form diazonium salts. It is used primarily as an injection solution for the treatment of trichomoniasis and other sexually transmitted diseases, but it also has been used in the preparation of pharmaceutical preparations. The reaction mechanism for N-chlorosuccinimide is not well understood, but it may involve a free radical intermediate or electron transfer from the chlorine atom to the carbon atom. Diazonium salts are formed by the reaction between an amine and an acid chloride. The addition of sodium hydroxide produces the corresponding azo compound. The reaction mechanism for N-chlorosuccinimide is not well understood, but it may involve a free radical intermediate or
