Abstract

Nitration of aromatic compounds and cinnamic acids with oxalylchloride/DMF afforded the corresponding nitro derivatives in the presence of KNO3 or NaNO2 under conventional and nonconventional (ultrasonic and microwave) conditions. The present methodology offers several benefits such as excellent yields, simple work-up procedure, and short reaction times. The yields obtained under present methodology are comparable with those obtained from (POCl3/DMF/KNO3 or NaNO2) and (SOCl2/DMF/KNO3 or NaNO2) systems followed by shorter reaction times. The reaction times of sonication and microwave conditions are very shorter than those of the conventional conditions.
