Abstract
A deep eutectic catalyst (DEC) catalyzed nitration reaction for synthesizing 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocane (HMX) from 3,7-dinitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazabicyclo[3,3,1]nonane (DPT) has been developed, using a reduced amount of fuming nitric acid and achieving a maximum yield of 85.8 %. In addition, the introduction of DEC significantly enhanced the nitration efficiency of nitrogen-containing substrates such as dimorpholinomethane and dipiperidinomethane, notably increasing the yields of their corresponding nitroso products. This method provides a greener and more economical alternative to ionic liquid-based processes.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
