At. Peters et A. Gbadamosi, DISPERSE DYES - 4-HETARYLAZO DERIVATIVES FROM N-BETA-CYANOETHYL-N-BETA-HYDROXYETHYLANILINE, Journal of chemical technology and biotechnology, 53(3), 1992, pp. 301-308
Aminothiazoles, benzothiazoles, thiadiazoles and thiophenes were diazo
tised and coupled to N-beta-cyanoethyl-N-beta-hydroxyethylaniline to g
