Aniline Reacts with Nitrous Acid,HNO2,to Yield a Stable Diazonium Salt

Question 6

Essay

Aniline reacts with nitrous acid,HNO2,to yield a stable diazonium salt.This diazonium salt undergoes electrophilic aromatic substitution on activated aromatic rings to yield brightly colored azo compounds that are widely used as dyes.The intermediate structures for the mechanism of this reaction are given below.Show all electron flow with arrows for this mechanism on the structures provided.
