Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution with Ethylenediamine.

Modern Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution

Synthesis of polynitroxides based on nucleophilic aromatic substitution.

The scope and limitations of the synthesis of polynitroxides by nucleophilic substitution of electron-deficient fluorinated aromatic compounds are described. The method provides a facile route to the formation of polynitroxides exhibiting strong electron exchange between nitroxide groups.

Transetherification of 2,4-dimethoxynitrobenzene by aromatic nucleophilic substitution

In view of the few reports concerning aromatic nucleophilic substitution reactions featuring an alkoxy group as a leaving group, the aromatic nucleophilic substitution of 2,4-dimethoxynitrobenzene was investigated with a bulky t-butoxide nucleophile under microwave irradiation. The transetherification of 2,4-dimethoxynitrobenezene with sodium t-butoxide under specific conditions, namely for 20 ...

On the frontier between nucleophilic aromatic substitution and catalysis.

A study on the arylation of heteroatom nucleophiles by using activated haloarenes, with or without metal catalysts, is reported. A discussion concerning the involvement of traces of metals is presented, supported by an unexpected ''ligand'' effect in the absence of added metal catalysts. We believe that the frontier between nucleophilic aromatic substitution and catalysis will likely prove to b...

Nucleophilic Substitution and Elimination

What does the term "nucleophilic substitution" imply? • A nucleophile is an the electron rich species that will react with an electron poor species • A substitution implies that one group replaces another. Nucleophilic substitution reactions occur when an electron rich species, the nucleophile, reacts at an electrophilic saturated C atom attached to an electronegative group (important), the lea...
