Hello,
So the MCAT lists "Reactions of amines with nitrous acid" as an official topic, and yet neither TBR nor EM seem to mention it significantly.
What do we need to know about these reactions? Does this reaction have any biological application? Is there some sort of unique intermediate? And are they referring to aryl amines or just regular, aliphatic amines?
Edit: I did see it on page 72 of EM. I'm just wondering if that level of coverage of the reaction is sufficient for the purposes of the MCAT.
