Abstract
A study is made of the nitration of thionaphthene-2-aldehyde, its diacetate, and of 2-(ω-nitrovinyl)thionaphthene. UV and IR spectroscopy show that nitration of thionaphthene-2-aldehyde in acetic anhydride gives a mixture of 3-nitrothionaphthen-2-aldehyde diacetate, 4-nitrothionaphthene-2-aldehyde diacetate, and 6-nitrothionaphthene-2-aldehyde diacetate in the ratios 10∶66∶24, while nitration of thionaphthene-2-aldehyde diacetate gives a mixture of 3-nitrothionaphthene-2-aldehyde diacetate, 4-nitrothionaphthene-2-aldehyde diacetate, and 6-nitrothionaphthene-2-aldehyde diacetate in the ratios 36∶38∶26. Nitration of 2-(ω-nitrovinyl)thionaphthene gives 4-nitro-2-(ω-nitrovinyl)thionaphthene.
