Abstract

Cyclic voltammograms of p-nitrobenzamide were recorded at different pH (5.0, 7.0 and 9.0) to establish the optimum conditions of its reduction. The reduction of p-nitrobenzamide was thereafter carried out galvanostatically at pH = 9.0 using Stainless (SS-316) as a working electrode. 4, 4’- icarbamoylazobenzene was obtained in which was good yield (91.2%) isolated then purified by chromatographic techniques and characterized on the basis of spectral analysis.
