Abstract

A novel nitration process was developed for the production of 4-(4-methoxy-3-nitrophenyl) morpholine. Crude 4-(4-methoxyphenyl) morpholine produced in step 1 was converted to its nitric acid salt. The nitration reaction was carried out by adding a dichloromethane solution of the isolated salt to concentrated sulfuric acid. This protocol provided an easy and reliable way to obtain a 1: 1 molar ratio of the substrate and nitric acid in the reaction mixture and ...
