1,3-Dialkyl-2-nitrobenzenes (C6H3R2NO2; R = Me, Et, and Prⁱ) rearrange in trifluoromethanesulphonic acid to the corresponding 4-nitro derivatives; with R = Et, this reaction is accompanied by dehydration to 7-ethyl-3-methylanthranil.The reaction rate increases markedly with the size of the alkyl group; with R = Me, the reaction was studied at 110 deg C but, with R = Prⁱ, temperatures of 36-54 deg C were used.The studies with R = Me show the reaction to be first-order with the rate coefficients (k₁) increasing rapidly with the acidity of the solution 1)/d(-H₀)> = 1.45, decreasing with acidity to o.49.Double-labelling experiments with 1H and 15N show the reaction to be intramolecular. 1,2,4-Trimethyl-3-nitrobenzene also rearranges under these conditions to give mainly the 5-nitro isomer.The above results are discussed in terms of a direct 1,3-shift of the nitro group.
