H 2 Te generated in situ reduces aromatic nitrogen compounds. Nitroarenes afford arylamines; azoxybenzene, azobenzene, and nitrosobenzene are transformed into hydrazobenzene; and hydroxylamine gives aniline. Azoxybenzene, azobenzene, and nitrosobenzene are possible intermediates of the reduction of nitrobenzene.
