Conclusions
The nitration of the methoxymethyl derivatives of secondary amides of general formula XN(AlK)CH2OCH3 by nitronium tetrafluoborate is accompanied either by cleavage of the N-CH2 bond to give alkylnitroamides or by cleavage of the O-CH2 bond to give methylenebisalkylamides or else it proceeds along both possible directions.
