- Highly selective catalytic nitration of 1-nitronaphthalene with NO2 to 1,5-dinitronaphthalene over solid superacid SO42?/ZrO2 promoted by molecular oxygen and acetic anhydride under mild conditions
-
A simple and efficient method for liquid-phase catalytic nitration of 1-nitronaphthalene with NO2 to 1,5-dinitronaphthalene under mild conditions has been developed. The results indicated that the sulfated zirconia (SO42?/ZrO2) as solid superacid catalyst exhibits superior catalytic performance with dioxygen and acetic anhydride. 93.8% conversion of 1-nitronaphthalene and 52.8% 1,5-dinitronaphthalene selectivity were achieved. Furthermore, the physicochemical properties of SO42?/ZrO2 were determined by XRD, Py-FT-IR, BET, FT-IR, Raman spectroscopy and ICP-OES technologies. The possible nitration reaction mechanism over SO42?/ZrO2 catalyst was proposed. The present work provides an easy-to-implement, mild and eco-friendly approach for the efficient preparation of valuable 1,5-dinitronaphthalene, which has extensive industrial application prospects.

- A simple approach for preparation of dinitronaphthalene compounds from the nitration reaction of 1-nitronaphthalene with NO2 as nitration reagent
-
A simple method for the preparation of dinitronaphthalene from the nitration reaction of 1-nitronaphthalene with NO2 as nitration reagent under the mild conditions has been successfully developed in this work. The results indicated that Ni(CH3COO)2·4H2O catalyst shows better catalytic performances, and the conversion of 1-nitronaphthalene is 33.10 % with 34.10, 23.56, 19.30, and 3.56 % of the selectivity to 1,5-DNN, 1,3-DNN, 1,4-DNN, and 1,8-DNN, respectively, under the optimal reaction conditions. This is a mild, environmentally benign, and economical method for the preparation of dinitronaphthalene.
