Abstract

Three sym-tetraalkyl-dinitroethanes 1-3 have been decomposed in solution at 180 to 215 °C. The alkylated 1,3-butadienes 10,12, and 13 are formed by elemination of HNO2. No products could be observed, which were generated by homolytic cleavage of the central C–C bond. Thus the dimers of tertiary α-nitroalkyl radicals (9) do not cleave into 9 by heating.
