Atkins, Ronald L.,Hollins, Richard A.,Wilson, William S.
, p. 3261 - 3266 (2007/10/02)
The synthesis of the three isomeric aminotetranitrotoluenes by nitration of an appriopriate aminodinitrotoluene is presented, and the apparent ipso nitration of 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene to give pentanitroaniline, is also discussed.The oxidation of the isomeric aminotetranitrotoluenes to pentanitrotoluene is described, as is the ammonolysis of pentanitroaniline and of pentanitrotoluene.
Synthesis of Polynitrodiazophenols
Atkins, Ronald L.,Wilson, William S.
, p. 2572 - 2578 (2007/10/02)
The formation of diazophenols by nitration of suitably substituted anilines and rearrangement of the nitroaromatic nitramines so formed is presented.The scope of the reaction is discussed, and a mechanism for the nitramine/diazophenol rearrangement is proposed which is consistent with 15N-labeling experiments.
Methods of preparing pentanitrotoluene

, (2008/06/13)
Pentanitrotoluene is prepared by a method which comprises preparing an amdinitrotoluene from a precursor of either TNT or 2,5-dinitro-3-methylbenzoic acid, nitrating the aminodinitrotoluene to produce a nitramine intermediate, converting the nitramine intermediate to an aminotetranitrotoluene and oxidizing the aminotetranitrotoluene with peroxydisulfuric acid to pentanitrotoluene. Pentanitrotoluene is an explosive.
