Abstract: | A new nitrosation and oxidation process to synthesize gem-dinitro compounds was accomplished by using nitryl chloride as nitrosation reagent and ozone as oxidizing agent. The main features of the present protocol include the compatibility to substances with high steric hindrance, high yields and mild reaction conditions. A plausible mechanism involving the formation of an intermediate of gem-nitrosonitro compound by means of single electron transfer was also proposed. |
