Diazotization is a reaction that converts an -NH 2 group connected to a phenyl ring to a diazonium salt. For example,
Diazotization reactions are extremely useful in organic synthesis. The nitrous acid provides NO + which replaces a hydrogen on the -NH 3 group to produce -NH 2 NO + and water; a second water is eliminated to produce the -N 2 + group.
