Popis: The reduction of nitrobenzene, nitrosobenzene, and azoxybenzene by potassium borohydride is catalysed by hydroxocobalamin. The products of the reaction with nitrobenzene include aniline and azobenzene. The cobalt(I) cobalamin, vitamin B12s, reacts with nitrobenzene, nitrosobenzene, azoxybenzene, and azobenzene but not with phenylhydroxylamine or hydrazobenzene. A mechanism for the reduction is proposed.
