(Chemical Equation Presented) The first heterolytic and homolytic N(O)-NO2 bond dissociation energy scales of three types Y-nitro (Y = N, O) compounds and corresponding radical anions in acetonitrile were established by using titration calorimetry combined with relevant electrochemical data through proper thermodynamic cycles.

N-Arylbenzimidoyl chlorides, in which the N-aryl group is unsubstituted at the ortho- and para-positions, react with AgNO3 to yield N-(nitroaryl)benzamides, in which the NO2 group resides in the ortho- or para-position.N-Arylbenzimidoyl chlorides, in which the N-aryl ring is 2,4,6-trisubstituted, react with AgNO3 to yield the corresponding N-aryl-N-nitrobenzamides.The formation of both types of product can be explained by the intermediacy of an O-nitro imidate.Spectroscopic and chemical evidence is presented for the formation of this intermediate in the reaction of N-(2,4,6-trisubstituted phenyl)benzimidoyl chlorides with AgNO3.Rearrangement of the O-nitro imidate is unimolecular and intramolecular.The rate of rearrangement is independent of the substituent in the C-aryl ring, but increases with the electon-withdrawing ability of the substituents in the N-aryl ring.A mechanism is proposed in which the imidoyl chloride reacts with AgNO3 to produce first a nitrilium ion which goes on to form an O-nitro imidate that subsequently rearranges via a homolytic cleavage of the O-NO2 bond.The ortho:para ratios of N-(nitroaryl)benzamides obtained in the present work indicate that O-nitro imidates are not responsible for the high 1/2ortho:para ratios sometimes observed in the nitration of anilides.N-Alkylbenzimidoyl chlorides react with AgNO3 to form the corresponding N-nitro- and N-nitrosobenzamides.The mechanism of formation of the N-alkyl-N-nitrobenzamide arises from a pathway analogous to that for N-aryl-N-nitrobenzamides, involving a nitrilium ion that gives rise to an O-nitro imidate.The evidence for the formation of the N-nitrosobenzamide points to an alternative reaction of the imidoyl chloride with AgNO3.One possible mechanism for this reaction is described.
