This reaction affords a mixture of isomers. Using an acid ratio of 30% nitric acid, 56% sulfuric acid and 14% water, the product mix is typically 34-36% 2-nitrochlorobenzene and 63-65% 4-nitrochlorobenzene , with only about 1% 3-nitrochlorobenzene .
4-Nitrochlorobenzene is prepared industrially by nitration of chlorobenzene: ClC 6 H 5 + HNO 3 → ClC 6 H 4 NO 2 + H 2 O. This reaction affords both the 2- and the 4-nitro derivatives, in about a 1:2 ratio. These isomers are separated by a combination of crystallization and distillation.
Nitrochlorobenzene is typically synthesized by nitration of chlorobenzene in the presence of sulfuric acid: C 6 H 5 Cl + HNO 3 → O 2 NC 6 H 4 Cl + H 2 O. This reaction affords a mixture of isomers. Using an acid ratio of 30/56/14, the product mix is typically 34-36% 2-nitrochlorobenzene and 63-65% 4-nitrochlorobenzene, with only about 1% 3 ...
The phrase ipso nitration was first used by Perrin and Skinner in 1971, in an investigation into chloroanisole nitration. [18] In one protocol, 4-chloro- n -butylbenzene is reacted with sodium nitrite in t -butanol in the presence of 0.5 mol% Pd 2 (dba) 3 , a biarylphosphine ligand and a phase-transfer catalyst to provide 4-nitro- n -butylbenzene.
The nitration of 1,2-dichlorobenzene mainly produces 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene, together with smaller amounts of the 3-nitro isomer.It can also be prepared by chlorination of 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene.
Chlorobenzene (abbreviated PhCl) is an aryl chloride and the simplest of the chlorobenzenes, consisting of a benzene ring substituted with one chlorine atom. Its chemical formula is C 6 H 5 Cl. This colorless, flammable liquid is a common solvent and a widely used intermediate in the manufacture of other chemicals.
In the so-called Ter Meer reaction (1876) named after Edmund ter Meer, [14] the reactant is a 1,1-halonitroalkane: The reaction mechanism is proposed in which in the first slow step a proton is abstracted from nitroalkane 1 to a carbanion 2 followed by protonation to an aci-nitro 3 and finally nucleophilic displacement of chlorine based on an ...
The nitration of benzene is achieved via the action of the nitronium ion as the electrophile. The sulfonation with fuming sulfuric acid gives benzenesulfonic acid. Aromatic halogenation with bromine, chlorine, or iodine gives the corresponding aryl halides. This reaction is typically catalyzed by the corresponding iron or aluminum trihalide.
