Abstract
The nitration of 5-formyl- and 5-acetyl-2,2′-dithienyls by the action of potassium nitrate in 60–95% sulfuric acid solutions was studied. An increase in the acidity of the medium and a decrease in the reaction temperature from +30°C to −30°C lead to an increase in the percentage of the 5′-nitro isomer in the mixture.
