Recent Advances of the Chemistry of Aliphatic Nitro Compounds

Abstract

Recent advances of the chemistry of aliphatic nitro compounds are reviewed, in which the following items are covered. 1) Preparation of aliphatic nitro compounds. 2) Reaction of aliphatic nitro compounds which includes substitution and elimination reaction of the nitro group, conversion of the nitro group to the carbonyl or amino group and organic synthesis using nitroolefins.
