Benzene Reactions - Introduction Benzene is a colourless organic compound, although it resembles a pale-yellow liquid at room temp. It has the chemical formula $mathrm{C_{6}H_{6}}$. Especially in comparison to addition reactions, it is very cooperative i
Presuming I have 3,5-dimethyl-4-nitro-benzaldehyde, and what I want is 2,6-methyl-nitrobenzene (same molecule, minus the -COH) is there a straightfortward way to do this conversion? Oxidizing it away seems risky: I don't want the -CH3 groups to go all -COOH on me, but I'm not...
It has been known as sonochemical darkening for benzene derivatives such as nitrobenzene to turn yellowish when irradiated with a power ultrasound [21]. This phenomenon is due to the extension of the π conjugate or the combination among benzene rings. Katoh et al. reported that a trace amount...
With the increase in temperature, there is are more chances of producing more than one nitro group, -NO₂, that gets substituted onto the ring and results in the formation of Nitrobenzene. The concentrated sulfuric acid acts as a catalyst in this reaction. The "nitronium ion" or the "nitr...
After exposure of benzene to synthesised peroxynitrite, phenol, nitrophenols (p-nitrophenol, o-nitrophenol and m-nitrophenol) and nitrobenzene were identified in the reaction mixture by HPLC separation and single UV wavelength and diode array detection. The formation of phenol, nitrophenols and ...
It is suggested that the selective reduction of nitrobenzene with the catalyst Mn3O4 runs by the Mars and Van Krevelen mechanism.doi:10.1006/jcat.1994.1304A. Maltha and T.L.F. Favre and H.F. Kist and A.P. Zuur and V. PonecJournal of Catalysis...

The nitrobenzene reactant in the third example is very unreactive, so rather harsh reaction conditions must be used to accomplish that reaction. These observations, and many others like them, have led chemists to formulate an empirical classification of the various substituent groups commonly ...
To decrease the detection limits to the ppb levels the authors considered the use of a cold-wall set-up and heterogeneous catalysis studies. 5. Resistive Sensors 5.1. Principle of Operation The transducing mechanism of these sensors consists of a metal oxide that changes its electrical properties ...
Let’s finish with a last example that lets us tie these examples together. 1-t-butyl-3-nitrobenzene. Here we again have a situation where two groups direct to different positions. What’s a stronger activating group,t-butyl or nitro?(hint : the answer to a question like this is almost...
