Synthesis of Nitroarenes by Oxidation of Aryl Amines

Nitro compounds are an important class of organic molecules with broad application in synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and materials science. Among the variety methodologies available for their direct oxidation primary amines represents attractive alternative route. Efforts towards development oxidative procedures synthesis nitro derivatives have spanned over past decades, leading to a wide protocols selective conversion derivatives. Methods nitroarenes via aryl amines, particular emphasis on recent advances field, summarised this review.
