Yields of aromatic products of nitration in nitric acid solutions containing dinitrogen pentaoxide or nitronium salt have been determined.Evidence for the intrusion of a mechanism other than the normal nitronium ion one comes from comparison of products in the two media and from the observation of 15N NMR CIDPN effects.The additional mechanism operative with some substrates in concentrated solutions of dinitrogen pentaoxide is postulated to be one in which reversible addition of the NO3 radical is followed by combination with NO2.Dienes produced in this way can give aromatic nitroproducts by elimination of nitric acid.Nitrodecarboxylation of substituted benzoic acids occurs by a radical process.
Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution. Part 34. Nitration of 1-Chloro-4-nitrobenzene, 1,3-Dichloro-2-nitrobenzene, 1,3-Dinitrobenzene, 1-Chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, and 2-Chloro-1,3-dinitrobenzene in Sulphuric Acid and Oleum

Yields of the expected nitro products from 1-chloro-4-nitrobenzene and 1,3-dichloro-2-nitrobenzene nitrated at 25 deg C in sulphuric acid or oleum containing 1 mol dm-3 nitric acid were quantitative.The rate profile for nitration of 1,3-dichloro-2-nitrobenzene is normal, but sulphonation is a competing process when the concentration of nitric acid is low.Kinetics of nitration of 1,3-dinitrobenzene at 150 deg C are reported; yields of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, the only detected aromatic product, are low.The title chlorodinitrobenzenes each give, on nitration at 130 deg C, a dichlorodinitrobenzene as well as a chlorotrinitrobenzene.The kinetics and yields of the two products from 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene under a variety of conditions are reported and discussed in relation to a previously proposed mechanism.
Selective weed control with m-dinitrobenzene

Weeds can be controlled by the application as a herbicide of m-dinitrobenzene. This compound is particularly effective for selectively controlling weeds in agronomic crops.
