On the basis of the reactions between 4,5-dinitroimidazole derivatives (1-methyl-4,5-dinitroimidazole, 1,2-dimethyl-4,5-dinitroimidazole and ethyl 2-(4,5-dinitroimidazol-1-yl)acetate) and cyclic amines (morpholine, piperidine or pyrrolidine) in mild conditions (THF or ethanolic solution), the order of nitro group substitution has been discovered for the first time. The influence of the solvent, steric effects and possibility of hydrogen bonds formation on the reaction direction has been discussed. Also, the way of formation of diamino-substitution product and interesting isomerization process is presented.
