GAS PHASE REACTION OF NITROUS ACID AND METHYL NITRITE WITH ARENIUM IONS - A NEW ROUTE TO ELECTROPHILIC AROMATIC NITROSATION

摘要

The occurrence of an alternative route to aromatic nitrosation, based on the reaction of gaseous RC(6)H(6)(+) arenium ions 6 (R = H, CH3) with XONO neutrals (X = H, CH3), has been demonstrated by FT-ICR mass spectrometry. [References: 26]
