The N-substituents are transferred from the title cations to the C-atom of nitroalkane anions in high yield at 25-80 deg C in DMSO solution.The title cations are readily available from the appropriate pyrylium cations and primary amines of types RCH2NH2 and RR'CHNH2, allowing a general 2-step method for the preparation of higher nitroalkanes.Spectral properties of a variety of nitroalkanes are discussed.
