Dinitrogen tetroxide-impregnated charcoal (N2O 4/charcoal): Selective nitrosation of amines, amides, ureas, and thiols

Efficient N-nitrosation of amines, amides, and ureas, and also S-nitrosation of thiols were performed with dinitrogen tetroxide impregnated on activated charcoal (N2O4/charcoal) in CH 2Cl2 at room temperature. High selectivity was observed for N-nitrosation of dialkyl amines, N-alkylamides and N-alkylureas. Dealkylation and N-nitrosation of trialkylamines were also performed by this reagent.

Conversion of nitrite to nitric oxide at zinc via S-nitrosothiols

Nitrite is an important reservoir of nitric oxide activity in the plasma and cells. Using a biomimetic model, we demonstrate the conversion of zinc-bound nitrite in the tris(pyrazolyl)borate complex iPr2TpZn(NO 2) to the corresponding S-nitrosothiol RSNO and zinc thiolate iPr2TpZn-SR via reaction with thiols H-SR. Decomposition of the S-nitrosothiol formed releases nitric oxide gas.

Silica-acetate complex of N2O4: A heterogeneous reagent for the selective nitration of phenols and nitrosation of thiols

Complexation of gaseous N2O4 with acylated silica gel affords an addition compound, which is an efficient heterogeneous reagent for the selective mono- and dinitration of phenol, substituted phenols and nitrosation of thiols.
