Abstract
Summary: tert-Butyl and cumyl hydroperoxides in strongly basic media react with a variety of nitroarenes to produce 0- and/or p-nitrophenols. The reaction proceeds via an addition-base-induced 0-elimination pathway analogous to that of vicarious nucleophilic substitution. ... The replacement of hydrogen on aromatic rings with a variety of substituents via electrophilic aromatic substi- tution is one of the most important processes in organic ...
