NITRATION

The present invention relates to a process for preparing a nitrated compound, comprising the step of reacting a compound (A) comprising at least one substituted or unsubstituted aromatic or heteroaromatic ring, wherein said heteroaromatic ring comprises at least one heteroatom selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulfur, phosphor, selenium and nitrogen, with a compound of formula (I) wherein Y is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and nitro.

Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution. Part 34. Nitration of 1-Chloro-4-nitrobenzene, 1,3-Dichloro-2-nitrobenzene, 1,3-Dinitrobenzene, 1-Chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, and 2-Chloro-1,3-dinitrobenzene in Sulphuric Acid and Oleum

Yields of the expected nitro products from 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene and 1,3-dichloro-2-nitrobenzene nitrated at 25 deg C in sulphuric acid or oleum containing 1 mol dm-3 nitric acid were quantitative.The rate profile for nitration of 1,3-dichloro-2-nitrobenzene is normal, but sulphonation is a competing process when the concentration of nitric acid is low.Kinetics of nitration of 1,3-dinitrobenzene at 150 deg C are reported; yields of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, the only detected aromatic product, are low.The title chlorodinitrobenzenes each give, on nitration at 130 deg C, a dichlorodinitrobenzene as well as a chlorotrinitrobenzene.The kinetics and yields of the two products from 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene under a variety of conditions are reported and discussed in relation to a previously proposed mechanism.
