【摘要】 三(对-甲苯磺酰氧甲基)硝基甲烷(1)于苯中,以锌粉和醋酸在加或不加醋酸酐下可以被还原,并分別形成相应的羟氨(2)或其醋酸酯(3)。值得注意的是,当2和3以1M甲醇钠在氯仿中处理时,受空气氧化后又形成硝基化合物(1),但在排除空气时,不发生这一氧化反应。同样,三(苯甲酰氧甲基)硝基甲烷当用锌粉-醋酸还原时可生成相应的胺。更多还原

【Abstract】 Tris(p-tosyloxymethyl)nitromethane(1)in benzene was reduced to cor-esponding hydroxylamine(2)or its acetate(3)by zinc dust and acetic acid with orwithout addition of acetic anhydride.It is notable that when treated with sodium meth-oxide in chloroform below 0℃,2 or 3 was oxidized by air to form the original nitrocom-pound(1).Similarly,tris(benzoyloxymethyl)nitromethane was reduced to correspondingamide by zinc dust-acetic acid.更多还原
