Abstract

1. In the reactions of the ambident anions of 1,1-dinitroalkanes (dinitroethane and dinitropropane) with acetyl and benzoyl chlorides these anions are acylated only on a nitro oxygen atom with formation of the corresponding O-acyl derivatives. 2. These unstable O-acyl derivatives undergo a number of further transformations; in the case of the 1,1-dinitroethane anion 1,1-dinitroethyl acetonitrolate, acetic or benzoic acetonitrolic anhydride, and 1,1-dinitroethane are formed.
