Polarographic study of aliphatic nitro compounds 11. Reduction of nitroalkanes with an electronegative substituent in the α position

  • Physical Chemistry

Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Reduction of nitroacetonitrile and 2-cyano-2-nitropropane proceeds through attack at the nitrogroup N-O bond.

  2. 2.

    The details of the structure of the anion formed through C-N bond rupture will determine whether nitroalkane reduction, will proceed through the C-N or N-O bonds.
