Abstract

Electrophilic nitration of benzylcyclopropanes, allylbenzenes, and diphenylmethanes containing ortho, para-orienting substituents in the para position of the benzene ring results mainly in replacement of the cyclopropylmethyl, allyl, or benzyl group, respectively (ipso substitution). The nitration of 4-cyclopropylallylbenzene is not accompanied by nitrodealkylation, and the products are only 2- and 3-nitro-4-cyclopropylallylbenzenes.
