Reaction of 1,4-Benzoquinone Monoxime and 5-(Hydroximino)quinoline-8(5H)-one with Alkane- and Cycloalkanediamines.

The amination of 1,4-benzoquinone monoxime and 5-(hydroximino)quinoline-8(5H)-one with diamines H2N-R-NH2 [R = -(CH2)2-; -(CH2)4-; and trans-cyclohexane-1,4-diyl] gave the corresponding N,N'-bis(4-nitrosophenyl)diamines and N,N'-bis(5-nitrosoquinolin-8-yl)diamines. Stable alkane- and cycloalkanediammonium salts of 1,4-benzoquinone monooxime and 5-(hydroximino)quinolin-8(5H)-one were synthesized. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
