It has been found that p-(dialkylamino) azobenzenes undergo a novel reaction on heating with formic acid or the constant boiling liquid formate composed of formicacid and trialkylamine. The reaction involves a number of reaction stages such as reduction, bond fission and migration, giving a number of the products, N-alkyl and N-formyl derivatives of p-phenylenediamine and of aniline.
