Abstract

Electrophilic aromatic substitution by nitrenium ions is of great interest in organic chemistry, but has not yet been established. We recently reported the presence of an ethoxy- carbonylnitrenium ion in the decomposition of ethyl azido- formate in acetic acid,l but aromatic substitution by this species was not found,? possibly because of its competing ...
