Chemical compound

Diphenylamine is the organic compound with the formula (C6H5)2NH. It is a colourless solid, but samples are often yellow due to oxidized impurities.

Preparation and reactivity

Diphenylamine is manufactured by the thermal deamination of aniline over oxide catalysts:

2 C6H5NH2 → (C6H5)2NH + NH3

It is a weak base, with a Kb of 10. With strong acids, it forms the water soluble salt.

Applications

Diphenylamine is used as a pre- or postharvest scald inhibitor for apples. Its anti-scald activity is the result of its antioxidant properties, which protect the apple skin from the oxidation products of alpha-farnesene during storage.

Diphenylamine derivatives are also useful. Ring-alkylated derivatives of diphenylamine are used as "antiozinates" in the manufacture of rubber products, reflecting the antioxidant nature of aniline derivatives. The compound undergoes various cyclisaton reactions. With sulfur, it gives phenothiazine, a precursor to certain pharmaceuticals.

(C6H5)2NH + 2 S → S(C6H4)2NH + H2S

With iodine, it cyclises to carbazole:

(C6H5)2NH + I2 → (C6H4)2NH + 2 HI

Arylation with iodobenzene gives triphenylamine.

Diphenylamine finds niche use as a test for nitrates (see nitrate test).
