Oxidative Nitration of Alkenes with tert-Butyl Nitrite and Oxygen

A method for the oxidative nitration of alkenes using a combination of tert‐butyl nitrite and molecular oxygen to give β‐nitro alcohols and their nitrate derivatives has been developed. The present reaction provides a practical method for the synthesis of nitro compounds because of the mild reaction...

Description
Summary:A method for the oxidative nitration of alkenes using a combination of tert‐butyl nitrite and molecular oxygen to give β‐nitro alcohols and their nitrate derivatives has been developed. The present reaction provides a practical method for the synthesis of nitro compounds because of the mild reaction conditions, the use of inexpensive reagents and a simple experimental procedure.
