Synthesis of o-nitrosoacylbenzenes from o-nitrobenzyl alcohols and their derivatives

Nitration of substituted benzyl alcohols, as well as ethers and esters derived therefrom, with nitric acid in acetic anhydride was studied. The corresponding o-nitrobenzyl alcohols and their derivatives formed as the primary products are capable of being converted into o-nitrosoacylbenzenes by the action of acids.
