Summary
On the basis of determinations of dissociation constants and a study of the spectra of eleven dinitroalkanes it was shown that there is a direct correlation between the acid character and the frequencies of C-H vibrations in the series of compounds RCH(NO2)2. A relation has therefore been found between the acid characters of these nitro compounds and their spectrum characteristics.
