β¦ Synopsis
Amino acid esters, formaldehyde and trinitromethane react readily in a Mannich type condensation to form N-trinitroethylamino acid esters in good yields. These products decompose slowly on standing but are stabilized by further nitration to the N-nitro-Ntrinitroethylamino esters. Hydrolysis of the esters to the free acids.is readily accomplished by warming with a mixture of hydrochloric and acetic acids. The above reactions are applied to both IX-and p-amino carboxylic acids and also to both aand (3-amino dicarboxyJic acids. Azidcs of the substituted (3-amino acids decompose normally to give isocyanates, but azides of the substituted a-amino acids decompose abnormally and yield none of the expected isocyanates.

The Michael condensation and the Mannich reaction were employed to prepare a variety of functional polynitro compounds. In general, reactions proceeded smoothly to give the expected products. However, 2,2,i,2'-tetranitrodiethylamine and its N-substituted derivatives did not give the expected Michael
