67. No ortho-C-deuterated phenol (2-[D] 5) was formed from the O-deuterated diazonium salt 3 (O-[D] 3), which means that the solvent (dimethyl sulfoxide) acted as preferred hydrogen source. This finding was further supported by the observation that ortho-C-deuterated phenol (2-[D] 5) did occur in reactions with deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide as solvent (see the Supporting Information).

71. 4 as reductant, 2- or 4-hydroxybiphenyl was obtained along with phenol (5) in ratios smaller than 1:20.
72. 4,4′-Dibromobiphenyl was obtained as by-product potentially arising from the copper-catalyzed cross- coupling reaction (tert-butyl iodide stabilized by Cu).
