A variety of deactivated arenes were nitrated to their corresponding nitro derivatives in excellent yields under high-speed ball milling condition using Fe(NO3)3·9H2O/P2O5 as nitrating reagent. A radical involved mechanism was proposed for this facial, eco-friendly, safe, and effective nitration reaction.

Regardless of the sustainable development path, today, there are highly demanded chemical productions still operating that bear environmental and technological risks inherited from the previous century. The fabrication of nitro compounds, and nitroarenes in particular, is traditionally associated with acidic wastes formed in nitration reactions exploiting mixed acids. However, nitroarenes are indispensable for industrial and military applications. We faced the challenge and developed a greener, safer, and yet effective method for the production of nitroaromatics. The proposed approach comprises the application of an eco-friendly nitrating agent, namely dinitrogen pentoxide (DNP), in the medium of liquefied 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (TFE) - one of the most non-hazardous Freons. Importantly, the used TFE is not emitted into the atmosphere but is effortlessly recondensed and returned into the process. DNP is obtainedviathe oxidation of dinitrogen tetroxide with ozone. The elaborated method is characterized by high yields of the targeted nitro arenes, mild reaction conditions, and minimal amount of easy-to-utilize wastes.

The ipso nitration of aryl boronic acid derivatives has been developed using fuming nitric acid as the nitrating agent. This facile procedure provides efficient and chemoselective access to a variety of aromatic nitro compounds. While several activating agents and nitro sources have been reported in the literature for this synthetically useful transformation, this report demonstrates that these processes likely generate a common active reagent, anhydrous HNO3. Kinetic and mechanistic studies have revealed that the reaction order in HNO3 is >2 and indicate that the ?NO2 radical is the active species.

An efficient, metal-free, and sustainable strategy has been described for the ipso-functionalization of phenylboronic acids using air as an oxidant in an aqueous medium. A range of carbon materials has been tested as carbocatalysts. To our surprise, graphite was found to be the best catalyst in terms of the turnover frequency. A broad range of valuable substituted aromatic compounds, i.e., phenols, anilines, nitroarenes, and haloarenes, has been prepared via the functionalization of the C-B bond into C-N, C-O, and many other C-X bonds. The vital role of the aromatic π-conjugation system of graphite in this protocol has been established and was observed via numerous analytic techniques. The heterogeneous nature of graphite facilitates the high recyclability of the carbocatalyst. This effective and easy system provides a multipurpose approach for the production of valuable substituted aromatic compounds without using any metals, ligands, bases, or harsh oxidants.

A practical synthetic method for the synthesis of aryl bromide was developed through regioselective bromination of boronic acid in the presence of poly-N-bromosulfonamide-melamine (PBBSM). In this regard, a novel heterogeneous support, cross-linked poly sulfonamide-melamine, has been successfully synthesized to stabilize bromine with high surface functional group density (6.6?mmol Br+/g). The prepared reagent is a novel brominating reagent that combines the effective functions of N-bromosulfonamide, N-bromosulfonamide-melamine, and melamine groups. The structure of PBBSM was characterized using XRD, FT–IR, 1H NMR, TGA, FE-SEM, EDX, and TGA analysis. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

This work reports the synthesis and catalytic application of mesoporous Au-loaded Mn3O4 nanoparticle assemblies (MNAs) with different Au contents, i. e., 0.2, 0.5 and 1 wt %, towards the selective oxidation of anilines into the corresponding nitroarenes. Among common oxidants, as well as several supported gold nanoparticle platforms, Au/Mn3O4 MNAs containing 0.5 wt % Au with an average particle size of 3–4 nm show the best catalytic performance in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as a mild oxidant. In all cases, the corresponding nitroarenes were isolated in high to excellent yields (85–97 %) and selectivity (>98 %) from acetonitrile or greener solvents, such as ethyl acetate, after simple flash chromatography purification. The 0.5 % Au/Mn3O4 catalyst can be isolated and reused four times without a significant loss of its activity and can be applied successfully to a lab-scale reaction of p-toluidine (1 mmol) leading to the p-nitrotulene in 83 % yield. The presence of AuNPs on the Mn3O4 surface enhances the catalytic activity for the formation of the desired nitroarene. A reasonable mechanism was proposed including the plausible formation of two intermediates, the corresponding N-aryl hydroxylamine and the nitrosoarene.
Low-temperature and highly efficient liquid-phase catalytic nitration of chlorobenzene with NO2: Remarkably improving the para-selectivity in O2-Ac2O-Hβ composite system

In this work, we developed a low-temperature and efficient approach for the highly selective preparation of valuable p-nitrochlorobenzene from the liquid-phase catalytic nitration of chlorobenzene with NO2 in O2-Ac2O-Hβ composite system. The results demonstrated that the introduction of molecular oxygen remarkably enhanced the chlorobenzene conversion and the cooperation catalysis of Hβ zeolite and Ac2O envidently improved the selectivity to para-nitro product. Under the optimized reaction conditions, 93.6 % of the selectivity to p-nitrochlorobenzene with 84.0 % of chlorobenzene conversion was obtained, and the ratio of p-nitrochlorobenzene to o-nitrochlorobenzene could reach up to 20.3. Furthermore, the selectivity distribution of nitration products was reasonably explained by the density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Finally, the possible nitration reaction pathway of chlorobenzene with NO2 was suggested in O2-Ac2O-Hβ composite catalytic system. The present work affords a new and mild nitration approach for highly selective preparation of valuable para-nitro products, and has potential industrial application prospects.

Photocatalytic and metal-free protocols to access various aromatic and heteroaromatic nitro compounds through ipso-nitration of readily available boronic acid derivatives were developed using non-metal-based, bench-stable, and recyclable nitrating reagents. These methods are operationally simple, mild, regioselective, and possess excellent functional group compatibility, delivering desired products in up to 99% yield.
Oxidative bromination of non-activated aromatic compounds with AlBr3/KNO3 mixture

Bromination of non-activated aromatic compounds with reaction mixture containing KNO3 and AlBr3 was studied in liquid substrates and in solvent. Aluminium bromide has three different roles in this reaction mixture. First, it is a source of bromide ions, which are essential in oxidative bromination application. Second, it acts as a catalyst, and lastly, it forms acidic environment via its hydrolysis, which is necessary for enhancement of the oxidising properties of nitrate ions. It was shown that when changing the reaction conditions, different side reactions (like nitration or Friedel–Crafts type arylation) can occur. However, it is possible to guide the reaction path and receive the desired outcome by choosing the suitable reaction conditions. In addition, it was shown that there has to be water content in this reaction mixture as the bromine formation rate depends on it, while there exists an optimal volume of water, where bromine formation is the fastest.

An efficient method was developed to synthesize brominated aromatic compounds from arylhydrazine hydrochlorides by using BBr3 in DMSO/CPME (cyclopentyl methyl ether) under air at 80 °C for 1 h without the use of bases or metal catalysts. In particular, this method could be carried out satisfactorily using electron-withdrawing groups to afford aryl bromides in a moderate to excellent yields.
