Reactions

With ketones and aldehydes, it condenses to give the hydrazones:

CH3C6H4SO2NHNH2 + R2C=O → CH3C6H4SO2NHN=CR2 + H2O

Upon heating in solution, it degrades, releasing diimide (N2H2), a useful reducing agent. Triisopropylbenzenesulfonylhydrazide is far more useful for this reaction.

Synthesis

Toluenesulfonyl hydrazide is prepared by the reaction of a toluenesulfonyl chloride with hydrazine:[2]

CH3C6H4SO2Cl + 2 NH2NH2 → CH3C6H4SO2NHNH2 + + [NH2NH3]Cl

Reactions

Preparation of 4-chloroquinazoline and its tosylhydrazide.

Tosylhydrazides can be installed by nucleophilic attack and later removed by base. It thus provides a way to covert C-Cl to C-H.[3]
