Abstract

The reactions of benzene derivatives C~6~H~5~X (X = H, Cl, CH~3~ and CF~3~) with hydrazine and ozone in the dark (a source of OH radicals) have been studied in a flow reactor at ambient temperature.

(Substituted) phenols were formed, but these were relatively unimportant compared to N‐heterocyclic compounds (condensation products of cis‐butenedial and analogues with hydrazine) and other (degradation) products.

Benzene and (trifluoromethyl)benzene follow a similar path as toluene, also with oxidative ring opening as major reactions.
