Acyl nitrates synthesis

Bachmann and Biermann reported the synthesis of nitroalkanes from the thermolysis of acyl nitrates. The thermolysis of nitrite and nitrate esters over an asbestos catalyst is also reported to yield nitroalkanes. ... 

From a synthetic point of view, the above studies have stimulated the synthesis of new types of /3-diketonato complexes. Thus, reactions at position 4 of the l-metalla-2,6-diox-acyclohexane rings, usually denominated the y-position (equation 2), such as halogen-ation , thiocyanogenation, chlorosulfenylation , arylsulfenylation, acylation, nitration, formylation , chloromethylation and dimethylaminomethylation (equation 2) ° have been performed as well as Suzuki coupling reactions (equation 3) , or an aldol reaction with p-nitrobenzaldehyde under Lewis acidic conditions (equation 4f. ... 

Anthraquinone dyes are derived from several key compounds called dye intermediates, and the methods for preparing these key intermediates can be divided into two types (/) introduction of substituent(s) onto the anthraquinone nucleus, and (2) synthesis of an anthraquinone nucleus having the desired substituents, starting from benzene or naphthalene derivatives (nucleus synthesis). The principal reactions ate nitration and sulfonation, which are very important ia preparing a-substituted anthraquiaones by electrophilic substitution. Nucleus synthesis is important for the production of P-substituted anthraquiaones such as 2-methylanthraquiQone and 2-chloroanthraquiaone. Friedel-Crafts acylation usiag aluminum chloride is appHed for this purpose. Synthesis of quinizatia (1,4-dihydroxyanthraquiQone) is also important.

Because the a-nitroketones are prepared by the acylation of nitroalkanes (see Section 5.2), by the oxidation of (3-nitro alcohols (Section 3.2.3), or by the nitration of enol acetates (Section 2.2.5), denitration of a-nitro ketones provides a useful method for the preparation of ketones (Scheme 7.10). A simple synthesis of cyclopentenone derivatives is shown in Eq. 7.66.76...

Furthermore, the preparation and reactions of 2-methoxythiophene were studied by Sice (70). This compound was obtained by a copper catalysed Williamson synthesis. It was also found that iodothiophene reacted readily with sodium alkoxides, whereas bromothiophene reacted slowly and chlorothiophene did not react at all. Sodium iodide accelerated the reaction of bromothiophene. The ortho, para orienting alkoxy group on carbon atom 2 increased the directive influence of the sulphur atom to the 5 position but competed with it to induce some attack on the 3 position by electrophilic reagents (nitration, acylation). The acylation of 2-methoxythiophene with stannic chloride at low temperatures furnished a mixture of two isomers. The 5-methoxy-2-acetothienone was obtained in higher yield and was identified by its ultraviolet absorption spectrum. 

A reaction in which an electrophile participates in het-erolytic substitution of another molecular entity that supplies both of the bonding electrons. In the case of aromatic electrophilic substitution (AES), one electrophile (typically a proton) is substituted by another electron-deficient species. AES reactions include halogenation (which is often catalyzed by the presence of a Lewis acid salt such as ferric chloride or aluminum chloride), nitration, and so-called Friedel-Crafts acylation and alkylation reactions. On the basis of the extensive literature on AES reactions, one can readily rationalize how this process leads to the synthesis of many substituted aromatic compounds. This is accomplished by considering how the transition states structurally resemble the carbonium ion intermediates in an AES reaction.
