Abstract
We have studied the reaction of nitrile oxides with nitrogen tetroxide. It was shown that the reaction is selective: acetonitrile oxide yields ethylnitrolic acid, α-oximinophenylacetonitrile oxide gives a mixture of isomers of phenylnitrofuroxan, and aromatic nitrile oxides give aryltrinitromethanes.
