Abstract
Reduction of nitrobenzene with sodium or lithium naphthalenide results in formation of azobenzene and azoxybenzene in modest yields. With sodium naphthalenide, azoxybenzene formation is favored; use of lithium naphthalenide results in enhanced azobenzene yields. Reduction of azoxybenzene with naphthalenide results in azobenzene and a variety of fragmentation products. Hydrazobenzene was the only product formed upon azobenzene formation.
