diazonium ka N2 is a very good leaving group since N2 gas is very stable so nitrogen pretty much leaves at the slightest disturbance Cl(-) isnt attached to C6H5N2(+), so the H from OH makes HCl which laves us with C2H5O(-) that resonates to become CH3CHO

H from OH(ethanol)? how C2H5O- resonates to become CH3CHO? @Nimboi

Mechanism of reaction of benzenediazonium chloride with ethanol to ...
In my textbook, all that was told was that ethanol is a mild reducing agent and hence reduces BDC while oxidising itself. Is there any mechanism or am I just supposed to remember this like a redox
