Nitration of the bromophenols (4a) and (5a) give products of nitro-debromination.Reaction of 6-methyl-4-nitro-2-phenylphenol (5c) with nitrogen dioxide gives 2-hydroxy-2-phenylcyclohex-3-enones (8) and (9), and probably stereoisomers (10), (20), (21) and (22).The mode of formation of these compounds is discussed.X-ray crystal structure determinations are reported for compounds (8) and (9).
