Nitration Sentence Examples

From meta-brombenzoicacid two nitrobrombenzoic ac i ds are obtained on direct nitration; elimination of the bromine atom and the reduction of the nitro to an amino group in these two acids results in the formation of the same ortho-aminobenzoic acid.

This substance readily yields ortho-oxybenzoic acid or salicylic acid, which on nitration yields two mononitro-oxybenzoic acids.

Direct nitration gives (principally) m-nitrobenzoic acid, also pseudotetragonal with a much shorter principal axis.

The reaction is generally carried out in the presence of sulphuric acid, which is used to absorb the water formed during the process of nitration.

Three isomers exist, the orthoand para-compounds being the chief products of the direct nitration of toluene.

Bottger of Frankfort and Otto and Knop, all of whom added to our knowledge of the subject, the last-named introducing the use of sulphuric along with nitric acid in the nitration process.

The solubility in ether-alcohol may be owing to a lower degree of nitration, or to the temperature conditions under which the process of manufacture has been carried on.

Nitration of benzoic acid gives chiefly meta-nitro-benzoic acid.

It is readily brominated and nitrated; when the nitration is carried out in the presence of sulphuric acid, the nitro-groups take up the meta position with regard to the amino-groups.

On nitration it gives orthoand para-nitrotoluenes - which on reduction yield the valuable toluidines, C6H4(CH3)(NH2) - and on sulphonation the parasulphonic acid is formed with a little of the ortho acid.
