Abstract

Abstract 5-Nitrofurfuryl nitrate and bromide (Ia, b) react with electron donors to give 1, 2-bis (5-nitro-2-furyl) ethane (II), 1, 2-bis (5-nitro-2-furyl) ethylene (III), 5-nitro-2-methylfurane (IV), products of S RN 1 reactions Va, Vb and other derivatives. Formation of the derivatives II to V is discussed on the basis of anionradical mechanism. 4-Nitrobenzyl bromide reacts by a S RN 1 reaction with 5-nitrofurfuryl phenyl sulphone (Va) in basic medium to give 1-(5-nitro- ...
