Structure of the Conjugate Acid of p-Nitroso-N, N-dimethylaniline

Abstract

INFORMATION about the structure of the ion formed when p-nitroso-N, N -dimethylaniline (I) accepts a proton can be derived from the high resolution proton magnetic resonance spectrum, and it is possible to discriminate between the oxygen protonated form (II) and the nitrogen protonated form (III).
