4-(1-Benzotriazolyl)-5-nitrophthalonitrile as a highly active substrate in aromatic nucleophilic substitution reactions

摘要

The title compound was synthesised, and its derivatives were prepared in high yields using the selective substitution of O-, S- and N-nucleophiles for the nitro group; an activating effect of the benzotriazolyl moiety on the above reactions was found. [References: 13]
