Abstract

The catalytic hydrogenation of o-nitro-chlorobenzene in aqueous alkali metal hydroxide solution with addition of an aromatic non-watermiscible solvent at an elevated temperature and under pressure using a noble metal catalyst and a polycyclic quinone as a co-catalyst leads to high and well-reproducible yields of 2,2'-dichloro-hydrazobenzene when the quinone is a derivative of anthraquinone, especially a hydroxy-anthraquinone. The product is obtained in so high a quality that it can be transformed without isolation or purification into 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine.
