Abstract

Treatment of primary nitroparaffins with carbon dioxide and magnesium methoxide (magnesium methyl carbonate) leads to magnesium salts of the corresponding a- nitrocarboxylic acids. These salts can be converted easily into the free nitro acids, the esters or the corresponding amino acids. The carboxylation reaction thus serves as a valuable method for synthesizing these compounds. On the basis of the contrasting behavior of ...
