Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The possibility of spontaneous reduction of benzofuroxans to benzofurazans in course of time due to reactions with diamines was shown for the first time. A possible mechanism of the reaction of 4,6-dichloro-5-nitrobenzofuroxan with diamines and related amines was analyzed by the quantum-chemical method. The results of research fully confirm the obtained experimental data and explain the impossibility of the subsequent reduction of amino-containing benzofuroxans due to a high activation barrier.
