Synthesis of Benzotriazole

One suggestion when you are posting a doubt, you can put the name of the concept and chapter in the post heading. That way it will be easy to find later on.
right now it shows up as confused xD which will be hard to search if you need to search for it 6 months down the line :P
wait aapne bhi mechanisam likha toh tha? the N behaves as a base, giving electrons to HNO2, process repeats with the other N from NH2
Sure sir
The mechanism that I have written? Is that it? I saw the mechanism and jotted it down in brief.. But couldn't figure out the reason for it
the acid part (first step ) elaborate karna hoga
check the links jo share kiye, the electron pair from NH2 attacks the HNO2 ka N. And then repeat from the other NH2
Is this alright @PeterGriffinItis ?
Yes sir absolutely
