Abstract
2,4-Dinitrotoluene reacts with ozone along two concurrent pathways: at the aromatic ring yielding stable against ozonolysis hydroperoxide, and at the methyl group with retention of the aromatic structure. The relative amount of products undergoing oxidation at the aromatic ring and at the methyl group depends on the ozonation conditions, especially on the process temperature.
