Abstract
[GRAPHICS] The Kyodai nitration of toluene and chlorobenzene has been examined in the presence of a solid inorganic catalyst (montmorillonite K10, zeolite HZSM-5 , or HBEA-25). Regioselection was quite low at the mononitration stage, but a considerably high preference for the 2,4-isomer was observed at the dini tration stage.
