Synthesis, NMR and X-ray characterisation of 6-substituted 4-amino-5-aryldiazenyl-1-arylpyridazinium salts

A new simple method has been used to prepare 6-substituted 4-(subst. amino)-5-aryldiazenyl-1-arylpyridazinium salts from N-methyl- or N-aryl-3-amino-1-phenylbut-2-en-1-ones and 4-aminopent-3-en-2-ones and substituted benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborates or hexafluorophosphates. The structure of selected derivatives was studied by means of 15N NMR spectra and X-ray.
