- Abstract
A new and environmental friendly nitration process of methyl 3-methylbenzoate by mixtures of HNO3/Ac2O for the synthesis of 5-methyl-2-nitrobenzoic acid has been developed. In this strategy, the key process is the nitration of methyl 3-methylbenzoate. The main advantages of this procedure are that it utilized a high selectivity of substrates and a green nitrating process. This made control of the reaction rate much easier.
