Abstract Highly regiospecific ortho–nitration of electronically diverse phenols is accomplished using Fe(NO3)3.9H2O for electron–rich and Cu(NO3)2.6H2O for electron–deficient phenols as the cheap nitrating agents. The reaction is carried out in CH3CN at 90 °C under mild and neutral conditions where structurally diverse phenols afford exclusively ortho–nitration products in moderate to good yields with

The reactions of 4-nitrophenyl, 2,4-dinitrophenyl, and 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl O-ethyl thiolcarbonates with substituted phenoxide ions are subjected to a kinetic study in water, 25.0 degrees C, ionic strength 0.2 M (KCl). By following the reactions spectrophotometrically, pseudo-first-order rate coefficients (k(obsd)) are found under excess of the nucleophile. Plots of k(obsd) VS phenoxide anion concentration at constant pH are linear, with the slope (k(N)) independent of pH. The Bronsted-type plots (log kN vs pK(a) of the phenols) are linear with slopes beta = 0.92, 0.77, and 0.61 for the reactions of the 4-nitrophenyl, 2,4-dinitrophenyl, and 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl derivatives, respectively. For these reactions, a concerted mechanism is proposed since the slope values are similar to those found in the concerted phenolysis of aryl acetates; the slope magnitudes are not consistent with a stepwise mechanism where the formation of a tetrahedral intermediate is rate limiting. Our results are in line with the finding that the reactions of the 2,4-dinitrophenyl and 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl derivatives with secondary alicyclic amines in water are concerted. In contrast, the reactions of the same substrates with pyridines are stepwise, which means that substitution of a pyridine moiety in a tetrahedral intermediate with a benzenethio group by a phenoxy group destabilizes the intermediate.
