A mild one-pot procedure for the polynitration of activated arenes. Convenient preparation of dinitro- and trinitrodialkoxybenzenes

When first treated with an excess of nitrogen dioxide alone and then in the presence of ozone at low temperature, dialkoxybenzenes are smoothly and stepwise polynitrated in a one-pot manner to afford the corresponding dinitro or trinitro derivatives in good yield.

DIMETHOXY AROMATIC COMPOUNDS. V / NITRATION AND NITRO DEALKYLYTION REACTIONS OF 1,1-BIS(DIMETHOXYPHENYL)-2-METHYLPROPANES

The nitration of the title compounds has been effected with different nitrating agents: HNO3 (either 65 percent or 99 percent in AcOH) and Cu(NO3)2 in Ac2O.It has been established that only the compounds having a high electronic density at the 1 position (2,4-dimethoxy derivatives) undergo considerable dealkylation processes and that either H3O(+) or NO2(+) can act as dealkylating agents.

An Unusual O-Methylation in the Allan-Robinson Synthesis of Purpurascenin, a 3,5,6,7,8,2',4',5'-Octamethoxyflavone

In the Allan-Robinson synthesis of 3,5,6,7,8,2',4',5'-octamethoxyflavone (Purpurascenin, I), from 2,4,6-trihydroxy-3,5,ω-trimethoxyacetophenone (IV) and asarylic anhydride, the expected intermediate, 5,7-dihydroxy-3,6,8,2',4',5'-hexamethoxyflavone (III) unusually gets further methylated to give 5-hydroxy-3,6,7,8,2',4',5'-heptamethoxyflavone (II) during the course of reaction.The possible mechanism of methylation is discussed.
