  2. Reduction of nitro compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_of_nitro_compounds

    R-NO 2 + 4 NH 4 Cl + 2 Zn → R-NH-OH + 2 ZnCl 2 + 4 NH 3 + H 2 O. Reduction to oximes. Nitro compounds are typically reduced to oximes using metal salts, ...

  3. Electrophilic aromatic directing groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_aromatic...

    The effect of this for fluorobenzene at the para position is reactivity that is comparable to (or even higher than) that of benzene. Because inductive effects depends strongly on proximity, the meta and ortho positions of fluorobenzene are considerably less reactive than benzene.

  4. Ortho effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ortho_effect

    There are three main ortho effects in substituted benzene compounds: Steric hindrance forces cause substitution of a chemical group in the ortho position of benzoic acids become stronger acids. Steric inhibition of protonation caused by substitution of anilines to become weaker bases, compared to substitution of isomers in the meta and para ...

  5. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    Consider para-disubstituted benzene p-F-C 6 H 4-Z, where Z is a substituent such as NH 2, NO 2, etc. The fluorine atom is para with respect to the substituent Z in the benzene ring. The image on the right shows four distinguished ring carbon atoms, C1, C2, C3, C4 in p-F-C 6 H 4-Z molecule. The carbon with Z is defined as C1(ipso) and ...

  6. Nitro compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_compound

    The structure of an organic nitro compound. In organic chemistry, nitro compounds are organic compounds that contain one or more nitro functional groups (−NO 2).The nitro group is one of the most common explosophores (functional group that makes a compound explosive) used globally.

  7. Benzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene

    In nitration, benzene reacts with nitronium ions (NO 2 +), which is a strong electrophile produced by combining sulfuric and nitric acids. Nitrobenzene is the precursor to aniline. Chlorination is achieved with chlorine to give chlorobenzene in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst such as aluminium tri-chloride.

  8. Pi electron donor-acceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_electron_donor-acceptor

    From this value the sum of pi-occupation for unsubstituted benzene (value close to 6 in accord to Huckel rule) is subtracted resulting in original pEDA parameter. For pi-electron donating substituents like -NH 2, OH or -F the pEDA parameter is positive, and for pi-electron withdrawing substituents like -NO 2, -BH 2 or -CN the pEDA is negative.

  9. Béchamp reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Béchamp_reduction

    The traditional Béchamp reduction cogenerates gray-black iron oxides. The Laux process is based on the finding that the oxide coproduct is strongly affected by various additives, such as ferrous chloride, aluminium chloride, and even simply sulfuric acid, which are added before heating the iron-nitrobenzene mixture.
