Nitration of arenes with controllable source of nitronium ions (factsheet)

In summary:
An inexpensive and bench-stable nitrating reagent enables access to nitro(hetero)arenes under very mild reaction conditions. There are minimal side-products and the core of the reagent is recyclable.

Fields of application:

  • Late stage functionalization of complex molecules
  • Pharmaceuticals, dyes, explosives, agrochemicals

ETH Zurich is looking for a licensing or collaboration partner for the presented opportunity. If you are interested to learn more about the technology, please contact me directly.
