Abstract

A nitro group may be effectively delivered to the ortho position of alkylbenzenes, provided that a suitable chaperon function is located in α-position and a dilute solution of HNO3 in CH2Cl2 is used. The carbonyl function of an aldehyde or ketone is the best choice, but a carboxyl, alkoxycarbonyl, and amide groups all work well. The ether function showed a less pronounced ortho orientation effect, whereas the hydroxyl group was too prone to ...
