25 4.2. General procedure for indium-catalyzed reductive synthesis of azobenzene compounds
General procedure: To a 5 mL screw vial under N2 containing a freshly distilled DMF (0.6 mL) were successively added aromatic nitro compound (0.60 mmol), In(OTf)3 (0.030 mmol, 17 mg), and Et3SiH (1.80 mmol, 287 μL). The resulting mixture was stirred at 60 °C (bath temperature), and monitored by TLC analysis. After completion of the reaction, the resultant mixture was further stirred under either an ambient or an O2 atmosphere during the corresponding reaction time. The reaction was quenched with H2O (6 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with AcOEt (6 mL×3), the combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by recrystallization from the solvent (hexane/chloroform) or silica gel column chromatography (hexane/AcOEt) to afford the corresponding azobenzene derivatives.

General Procedure of Nitration.
All reactions were carried out in a 50 mL one-necked round bottomed flask equipped with a water condenser and a magnetic stirrer. In a typical experiment, a mixture of zeolite HBEA-500 (0.30 g) which was calcined at 550 °C for 2 h in air prior to use, biphenyl (0.61 g, 4 mmol), nitric acid (95%, 0.35 mL, 8 mmol) was stirred in acetic anhydride (5.0 mL) at -5 °C for 24 h. When the reaction was over, 10 mL of dichloromethane was added, then the zeolites was removed by filtration and the filtrate was washed with water (3 × 10 mL) and 5% aqueous solution of NaHCO3 (10 mL) and water (3× 10 mL). The organic phase separated was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and filtrated to give a straw yellow liquid. The isomer distribution and yields of products were estimated from the peak areas based on the internal standard technique using gas chromatography. The straw yellow products with further purification by column chromatography, and were identified by comparison of their analytical data with those of authentic samples.
