First published in 1971 this volume claims that nitration is
important for two reasons. First, because it is the most general
process for the preparation of aromatic nitro-compounds, and
secondly, on account of the part it has played in the development
of theoretical organic chemistry. The special concern of this
monograph is with those nitrating systems in which mechanistic
studies have established, or made probable, the identity of the
agent through which they effect nitration. It presents a summary of
the understanding of the nitration process. A discussion of the
various types of nitrating systems leads to the conclusion that
nitration is generally effected through the nitronium ion. The
mechanism of the substitution is examined, and discussed in terms
of reactivity for particular groups of aromatic compounds.
