Abstract

The equilibrium constants of seven sequential-parallel reactions of conversion of glycerin into glycerin trinitrate in aqueous HNO3 were measured. The effect of the acidity of the medium on the equilibrium nitration constants is correlated with processes of protonation of glycerin and its nitrates. The equilibrium nitration constants are higher for primary hydroxides than for secondary hydroxides, and they decrease in both series in going from glycerin to its dinitrates.
