Nitration of deactivated aromatic compounds via mechanochemical reaction

A variety of deactivated arenes were nitrated to their corresponding nitro derivatives in excellent yields under high-speed ball milling condition using Fe(NO3)3·9H2O/P2O5 as nitrating reagent. A radical involved mechanism was proposed for this facial, eco-friendly, safe, and effective nitration reaction.

On the role of guests in enforcing the mechanism of action of gated baskets

We designed and prepared a spacious and gated basket of type 2 (V = 318 A3) in ten synthetic steps. With the assistance of 1H NMR spectroscopy, we found that the pyridine gates at the rim of 2 form a seam of N-H...N hydrogen bonds, t

A Fast, High-Yield Preparation of Vicinal Dinitro Compounds Using HOF·CH3CN

HOF·CH3CN, a very efficient oxygen-transfer agent, was reacted with various aliphatic and aromatic vicinal diamino compounds. The products were the rare, vicinal dinitro derivatives formed in excellent yields and short reaction times. This is in contrast to other oxygen-transfer agents which tend to break the central C-C bond of the diamino precursor. This reaction was also used for making dinitro compounds with all four oxygens, being the [18]O isotope.
