Formation of aromatic arsonic acids by treating aromatic diazonium compounds with alkali arsenites in the presence of cupric salts or powdered silver or copper; in the Scheller modification primary aromatic amines are diazotized in the presence of arsenious chloride and a trace of cuprous chloride:

The modified Bart reaction can be applied to the formation of arylstibonic acids:
