INDEX nitro compounds

Most aliphatic nitro compounds are liquids the physical properties (boiling point, density and refractive index) therefore provide valuable information for purposes of identification. 

Nitroethane and 1-(3,4 methylenedioxy) 2- nitropropane This method of producing the above mentioned nitro compounds is by far the best Ritter has come across yet The problem with standard nitroethane synthesis is that the -NO2 source most commonly used is silver nitrite (a la Merck Index citing). Needless to say, this is going to be an expensive compound to make as it is not available commercially but must be synthesized from costly silver nitrate. The other methods mentioned in Vogels 5th masterpiece... 

Many A-nitro compounds show explosive instability, arising from the low N—N bonding energy, and the explosive properties of A-alkyl-A-nitroaiylamines have been discussed. Individually indexed compounds are ... 

The prefix trans tells us that the triphenylphosphine groups occupy opposite corners of a square rather than adjacent corners (cis). The use of chloro in the name (instead of chloride ) implies the absence of discrete chloride ions, as in [Ir(CO)(PPh3)2]+Cr. Names, as opposed to formulae, are easier to index or to store in a data bank for the rapid retrieval of information on compounds having specific structural features. If a chemist wished to collect the available thermodynamic data for inorganic nitrites, a computer search of formulae containing NOz or some multiple thereof would produce a vast number of organic nitro-compounds of no...

Many of the reactions of A-chloro- and A-bromo-imides are extremely violent or explosive. Those observed include A-chlorosuccinimide with aliphatic alcohols or benzylamine or hydrazine hydrate A-bromosuccimmidc with aniline, diallyl sulfide, or hydrazine hydrate or 3-nitro-A-bromophthalimide with tetrahydrofur-furyl alcohol l,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethyl-2,4-imidazolidindione with xylene (violent explosion). Individually indexed compounds are ... 

Aromatic acyl halides containing a nitro group adjacent to the halide function show a tendency towards violent thermal decomposition. The few individually indexed compounds are ... 

This group covers aromatic nuclei bearing one nitro group most mono-nitro benzenes can be persuaded to detonate by a tetryl booster few are an immediate danger in tbe absence of other sources of energy. Calorimetric studies [1] suggest tbat nitroaiyl compounds decompose by an autocatalytic mechanism, and thus stability may depend upon thermal history. Individually indexed compounds are ... 

Nitroglycerin and the Nitroglycerin-Nitro-Dolyglycerin mixture Determination of the refractive index of a sample should give at least a qualitative indication of the presence of the glycol compounds...
