Paragraph 0056; 0057; 0058; 0059; 0060, (2016/12/07)
Position-1 halogen can be selectively reduced by reacting a compound represented by formula (3): [wherein X represents a chlorine atom, a bromine atom, or an iodine atom] with halogen in the presence of a heterogeneous transition metal catalyst to produce 2-(halogenomethyl)-1-methyl-3-nitrobenzene represented by formula (1): [wherein the symbol is as defined above].
SPECIFIC ORTHO ORIENTATION IN THE VICARIOUS SUBSTITUTION OF HYDROGEN IN AROMATIC NITRO COMPOUNDS WITH CARBANION OF CHLOROMETHYL PHENYL SULFONE

Vicarious nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen atoms in nitroarenes with chloromethylphenyl sulfone proceeds selectively ortho to the nitro group when carried out in t-BuOK/THF base/solvent system.In the majority of 3-substituted nitrobenzene derivatives substitution occurs at the most hindered position 2.These conditions offer an efficient method of synthesis of 2,6 and 2,3-disubstituted nitrobenzene derivatives.
