Nitrosylsulfuric acid

Nitrosylsulfuric acid is the chemical compound with the formula NOHSO4. It is a colourless solid that is used industrially in the production of caprolactam, and was formerly part of the lead chamber process for producing sulfuric acid. The compound is a salt best described as NO+HSO4− (nitrosonium hydrogensulfate). It is called “lead-chamber crystals”.

Synthesis and reactions
A typical procedure entails dissolving sodium nitrite in cold sulfuric acid: : It can also be prepared by the reaction of nitric acid and sulfur dioxide. is used in organic chemistry to prepare diazonium salts from amines, for example in the Sandmeyer reaction. Related NO-delivery reagents include nitrosonium tetrafluoroborate and nitrosyl chloride. In industry, the nitrosodecarboxylation reaction between nitrosylsulfuric acid and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid is used to generate caprolactam: This conversion illustrates the Snia Viscosa process : ==References==
