Abstract

Abstract Reaction of o-and p-cresol, the xylenols, and 2-naphthol with nitrogen dioxide gives nitrocyclohexadienones and nitrophenols. Secondary nitrodienones, the keto tautomers of the nitrophenols, have been observed in several cases and are intermediates in the formation of the nitrophenols.
