Alcohols, nitration

Pujo Boileau (Ref 1) studied the action of nitrogen peroxide on epoxides and found that the reaction did not yield nitro derivs, as expected, hut nitrate-nitrite esters metha-nolysis converted the esters to alcohol nitrates. Nitration with sulfuric-nitric acids (50/50) yielded dinitrate derivs and with...

Fifty to sixty per cent of ethylene reacts in accordance with eqn. (4), and 40-50% in accordance with eqn. (5). Numerous attempts to use an oil comprising a mixture of (I) and (II) in the manufacture of explosives have been unsuccessful, because jS-nitroethyl alcohol nitrate is insufficiently stable. Experiments have been made to partially hydrolyse the oil with hot water at 80-90°C. Under these conditions nitroethyl nitrate undergoes decomposition, whereas nitroglycol remains unchanged (Oehme [25]). However, the method was not adopted in practice because the yield of nitroglycol is relatively low, i.e. about 40% by weight of the oily product. 

Attempts to obtain polyvinyl alcohol nitrate, (polyvinyl nitrate), were made with the object of producing a synthetic polymer capable of replacing nitrocellulose. 

Le Roux and Sartorius [35] have determined the content of nitrogen in polyvinyl alcohol nitrate to be 13.5-14.5%, whereas its theoretical maximum content of nitrogen is 15.75%. The detonation of polyvinyl alcohol nitrate is propagated with a rate similar to that of nitrocellulose of the same nitrogen content. The rate of detonation of polyvinyl nitrate, containing 13.4% of nitrogen, in cardboard cartridges 30 mm dia. is ... 

We are of opinion, that many of the nitrates might be advantageously employed in the manufacture of fire works. Some, as nitrate of strontian, communicate a red color to flame, as the flame of alcohol. Nitrate of lime also might be used.. . . Muriate of strontian, mixed with alcohol, or spirit of wine, will give a carmine-red flame. For this experiment, one part of the muriate is added to three or four parts of alcohol. Muriate of lime produces, with alcohol, an orange-coloured flame. Nitrate of copper produces an emerald-green flame. Common salt and nitre, with alcohol, give a yellow flame.14...
