Abstract

The possibilities for stabilization of compounds with the A-B-NO2 fragment, where A is an atom containing a lone electron pair, were examined. It was shown thatN-methyl-O-2,4-dinitro- and 2,4,6-trinitrophenylhydroxylamines undergo nitration with nitronium tetrafluoroborate or with a mixture of nitric acid and acetic anhydride to give the correspondingN-nitrohydroxylamines in high yields.N-Nitro-2,4-dinitrohydroxylamine that contains no methyl group at the nitrogen atom is unstable and forms a product ofO-alkylation upon reaction with diazomethane.
