| Abstract | Aliphatic nitro compounds (RNO2), also called nitroalkanes and nitroparaffins, are isomeric with the chemically different alkyl nitrites (RONO). As shown by the following equilibrium involving a secondary nitroalkane, the nitroalkane and nitronic acid are tautomers, sharing a common nitronate anion. The nitroalkane is less acidic than the corresponding nitronic acid and, in most cases, the equilibrium lies far to the left. The acidity of the primary and secondary nitroalkanes is due partly to the electron‐withdrawing effect of the nitro group and the resonance stability of the nitronate anion. |
