Sm. Nagy et al., SELECTIVITY OF NITRATION REACTIONS OF AROMATIC-COMPOUNDS ON ZEOLITES H-Y AND H-ZSM-11, Journal of physical organic chemistry, 7(7), 1994, pp. 385-393
Substrate and positional selectivity in the nitration reactions of ben
zene and its derivatives (halobenzenes, toluene and o-xylene) by nitri
c acid and acyl nitrates supported on zeolites H-Y and H-ZSM-11 were s
tudied. The reaction mechanism and effects governing selectivity of th
e process are discussed.
