- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
Benzenediazonium salts react with copper (I) cyanide, or alkali metal cyanides in the presence of copper, to form benzonitriles with the release of nitrogen gas. This is a variation of the Sandmeyer reaction. (Rodd, E. H, ed. The Chemistry of Carbon Compounds. New York: Elsevier Publishing Company, 1964. Vol. IIIc, pp. 74).
