Abstract:
A process for the halogenation (bromination or chlorination)/nitration/fluorination of aromatic derivatives substituted by at least one group containing a halogenoalkyl unit. The aromatic derivative is reacted with a halogen and a nitrating agent in liquid hydrofluoric acid. The products obtained are useful as intermediates for the synthesis of compounds having a plant-protecting or pharmaceutical activity.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of para-nitrophenol by bringing a phenyl ester of an inorganic acid into contact with a nitrating agent in the presence of liquid hydrofluoric acid and a hydrolysis of the nitrated product obtained is carried out either simultaneously or in sequence with the nitration.
Abstract:
A process for selectively forming nitro compounds by contacting, at elevated temperature and pressure and in a homogeneous gas phase, an aldehyde having from two to ten carbon atoms with nitrogen dioxide alone or in the presence of oxygen and/or water.
