Abstract
The mixture of products formed in the nitration of methyl furan-2-carboxylate in acetic anhydride was separated by means of thin-layer and column chromatography. It was found that products of cis and trans addition of acetyl nitrate to the furan ring — methyl 5-nitro-2-ace-toxy-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-carboxylate and 5-nitro-4-acetoxy-4,5-dihydrofuran-2-carboxylate — and methyl 5-nitrofuran-2-carboxylate are formed in the nitration.
