The reaction of the 2-chloro-1,l-dialkyl-6-nitroacenaphthenes (1)-(3) with azide and p- toluenethiolate ions takes place by the SRN1 mechanism, to give the substitution products (27)-(32), despite the fact that the nitro group and the chlorine-bearing benzylic carbon are attached to different aromatic rings. The reaction of the stereoisomers (2) and (3) of 2-chloro-1-ethyl-1-methyl-6-nitroacenaphthene takes place through an effectively planar benzylic radical (35), which is preferentially attacked from the face remote from the a-ethyl group. The presence of geminal alkyl groups α to the reaction site in the rigid acenaphthene system restricts the scope of the substitution processes to sterically unhindered nucleophiles, and the reaction fails with reagents such as sodium p- toluenesulfinate (23) and the salts, (24) and (25), derived from 2-ethylmalononitrile and 2-nitropropane.

In the title compound, C17H14N2O6, the conformation about the C=C double bond [1.345 (2) Å] isE, with the ketone moiety almost coplanar [C—C—C—C torsion angle = 9.5 (2)°] along with the phenyl ring [C—C—C—C = 5.9 (2)°]. The aromatic rings are almost perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle = 86.66 (7)°]. The 4-nitro moiety is approximately coplanar with the benzene ring to which it is attached [O—N—C—C = 4.2 (2)°], whereas the one in theorthoposition is twisted [O—N—C—C = 138.28 (13)°]. The molecules associateviaC—H...O interactions, involving both O atoms from the 2-nitro group, to form a helical supramolecular chain along [010]. Nitro–nitro N...O interactions [2.8461 (19) Å] connect the chains into layers that stack along [001].

In the title compound, C15H12N2O7, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 4.58 (13)° and the nitro group is rotated from its attached ring by 18.07 (17)°. Intramolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds generateS(5) andS(6) rings, respectively. In the crystal, molecules are linked by O—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating [001]C(7) chains. The chains are linked by C—H...O interactions, forming a three-dimensional network, which incorporatesR22(7) andR22(10) loops.

Hydrogenation is only the beginning: alkyl groups are mildly transferred from alkyl substituted Hantzsch esters to replace the nitro groups of nitro olefins to providetrans-olefins in moderate to excellent yields.

In the title molecular salt [systematic name: triethylammonium 1,3-dimethyl-2,6-dioxo-5-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-4-olate], C6H16N+·C12H8N5O9−, the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings in the anion is 46.88 (8)°. The nitro groupparato the ring junction is almost coplanar with its attached ring [dihedral angle = 0.76 (3)°], but the twoortho-nitro groups are substantially twisted from the ring plane, by 47.91 (2) and 42.90 (1)°. In the crystal, the cation and anion are linked by an N—H...O=C hydrogen bond; these dimeric associations are further connected by weak C—H...O bonds to form linear supramolecular chains extending in the [001] direction.

p-Aminobenzaldehydes have been prepared from several nitroxylenes and trimethylnitrobenzenes by reaction with aqueous alcoholic sodium polysulphide. The oxidation of the methyl group accompanying the Zinin reduction proceeds most readily when the nitro group is unhindered.

A synthetic catalyst precursor formed by sulfiding ferrihydrite (Fe3+O(OH)) in the presence of a hydrogen donor produces X-ray diffraction patterns resembling a mixture of both naturally occurring FeS2 polymorphs marcasite and pyrite. The diffraction peaks display a differential broadening, however, wherein only those peaks coincident to both marcasite and pyrite are strong and sharp, a feature that cannot be accounted for by a simple physical mixture. The broadening is analogous to that found in hexagonal cobalt, where occasional stacking faults produce interstratification of the hexagonal and cubic close-packed forms, resulting in strongly coherent diffraction only along the stacking direction. The crystal structures of marcasite and pyrite are virtually identical if viewed perpendicular to the (101) and (001) planes, respectively. Calculation of diffraction patterns based upon models of interstratifying marcasite and pyrite layers along these planes demonstrates that a sequence with marcasite-to-pyrite and pyrite-to-marcasite stacking fault probabilities of 0.22 provides a good fit to the experimental pattern. This interstratified material is a precursor to a species that shows catalytic activity for cleaving C-C bonds between aromatic rings and benzylic carbon atoms at low (<350 °C) temperatures.

In the title compound, C9H8ClN3O2, the terminal C atom of the ethyl group deviates from the indazole ring (r.m.s. deviation = 0.008 Å) by 1.588 (3) Å. The dihedral angle between the ring system and the attached nitro group is 2.8 (3)°. In the crystal, weak C—H...O interactions link the molecules into zigzag chains propagating along [001]. In addition, weak π–π stacking interactions [centroid–centroid separations = 3.6809 (10) and 3.7393 (11) Å] help to consolidate the packing.
