Abstract

A methoxy group in 1,2, 3‐trimethoxybenzenes can be readily displaced by a butyl group via reaction with butyllithium in hexane. The reaction probably proceeds via an addition‐elimination mechanism. There appears to be a qualitative relation between the coefficient of the LUMO at the central C‐O carbon atom and the rate of the reaction.

The nitro group in 2-and 4-nitronaphthalic-1,8-anhydrides can be substituted by amines in certain cases with retention of the anhydride grouping. We wish to report the novel displacement of the nitro group in certain nitronanhthalic-1,8-
