Question

How does anisole react with $H {N O}_{3}$ in presence of Suphuric acid?

Open in App

Solution

Anisole (methoxybenzene) is an electron-rich arene that will react with nitric acid in the presence of sulphuric acid in an electrophilic aromatic substitution.

When anisole is nitrated with a mixture of conc. HNO₃ and H₂SO₄ it gives a mixture of ortho-Nitroanisole and para-Nitro anisole (major) products.
