Hi,
The Bamberger rearrangement is the chemical reaction
of N-phenylhydroxylamines with strong aqueous acid,
which will rearrange to give 4-aminophenols.
N-Phenylhydroxylamines are typically synthesized from
nitrobenzenes by reduction using rhodium or zinc.

The mechanism of the Bamberger rearrangement proceeds
from the monoprotonation of N-phenylhydroxylamine.
N-protonation is favored, but unproductive.
O-protonation can form the nitrenium ion , which can
react with nucleophiles (H2O) to form the desired
4-aminophenol.

here is some procedure from organic syntheses. please
follow the link.

good luck
cheers
