Donor-acceptor biaryl lactones: PH induced molecular switches with intramolecular charge transfer modulation

The physical properties of biaryl-containing compounds are known to be highly dependent on molecular geometry. We report the syntheses and fundamental spectroscopic study of two donor-acceptor biaryl lactone (6H-benzo[c]chromen-6- one) pH-driven switches.

Process for the production of nitro derivatives of aromatic compounds

Nitroderivates of aromatic compounds which are difficult to nitrate, can readily be obtained by nitration providing that the aromatic compound is treated with nitric acid or another nitrating agent in the presence of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic hydrocarbons monosubstituted or polysubstituted by halogen, the nitro group or an alkyl sulphonyl group, and the nitro derivative formed subsequently isolated.
