Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The formation of the anion-radicals (AR) of the corresponding nitroalkoxybenzenes is observed in the reactions of the o-, m-, and p-nitroanisoles and p-nitrophenetole with alkali metal alkoxides, the rate for the formation and destruction of which changes in the order: CH3ONa<C2H5ONa<t-C4H9OK.

  2. 2.

    The rates for the formation of the AR of nitroalkoxybenzenes in the reactions with CH3ONa increase with increase in the concentration of the reagent and substrate and the amount of DMSO in its mixture with CH3OH. The substituents in the substrate lower the rate in the order: m-OCH3>p-OCH3>o-OCH3, which corresponds to the change in the acceptor capacity of the compounds.
