Abstract

Nitroarenes are important synthetic intermediates and their reactivity towards organometallics has been extensively studied. [1] They are cheap and commercially available starting materials and chemoselective transformations of the nitro group leads to a number of useful products. ... Selective mono-functionalization of dinitrobenzenes is a longstanding problem in organic syntheses [2] [3] and has attracted both academic and industrial interest. The chemoselective ...
