Cyclic acetals derived from aromatic carbonyl compounds can be nitrated smoothly with nitrogen dioxide in ice-cooled dichloromethane or acetonitrile in the presence of ozone and magnesium oxide to give ortho- and para-nitro derivatives as the major product in good combined yields, the acetal ring as a protective group remaining almost intact.An acylal derived from benzaldehyde similarly undergoes nitration on the aromatic ring to give an isomeric mixture of three nitro compounds, in which the ortho and meta isomers predominate, while aromatic orthoesters are rapidly decomposed to give simply the parent esters.Ring nitration under neutral conditions has been interpreted in terms of a nonclassical mechanism, in which nitrogen trioxide is involved as the initial electrophile.

In acid-catalyzed reactions with 3-unsubstituted indoles 1, 2-alkoxy-1,3-dioxolanes 2a-c behave as acyl equivalents.Depending on the substitution patterns of the reaction partners, the 1,3-dioxolanium ions 3a-c, generated in situ from the cyclic ortho esters by the action of sulfosalicylic acid, react to form tris-(3-indolyl)alkanes 6 and 9, bis-(3-indolyl)ethenes 7, or 3-benzoylindoles 8.Analogous reactivity was observed with related acyclic ortho esters.
