Question

Reaction of hydrazoic acid (n3h)(n3h) with chlorobenzoic acid

Answer 1

Answer:

Reaction with hydrazoic acid forms the protonated azido ketone 2, which goes through a rearrangement reaction with the alkyl group R, migrating over the C-N bond with expulsion of nitrogen. The protonated isocyanate is attacked by water forming carbamate 4, which after deprotonation loses carbon dioxide to the amine.
