Abstract:
Nitro compounds of eugenol were rarely described because eugenol derivatives with OH- and CH2=CH-CH2 groups in the molecular can be easy oxidated and polymerized on nitration reaction. The nitration of eugenol derivatives is an important reaction because the nitro group can be converted into a large variety of other functional groups. Eugenoxy acetic acid its methyl, ethyl esters were treated with HNO3 in CH3COOH to give dinitro eugenoxy acetic acid, methyl dinitro eugenoxy acetate and ethyl dinitro eugenoxy acetate. IR- and UV - spectra show that one nitro group replaces H at benzene ring, the other replaces H at alkyl group.
