Nitration of 1,2,3,5-tetramethylbenzene (2a) with fuming nitric acid gives the tetramethylnitrobenzene (22), products of side-chain modification (23)-(27), the rearranged 6,6-dimethylcyclohexenones (8), (28), (29) and (30), and 2,3,4,6-tetramethyl ketone derivatives (10)- (13), (31) and (32). Reaction of 2,3,4,6-tetramethylphenol (7) with nitrogen dioxide gives the hydroxy dinitro ketone (9) in addition to the trinitrocyclohexenones (11)-(14) and (19). X-ray crystal structures are reported for compounds (11), (19), (28), (29), (30) and (32). 1H n.m.r ./stereochemistry correlations are reported for some 2,5-dinitro- and 2,5,6-trinitro-cyclohex-3-enones.

Nitration of pentamethylphenol (1) with nitrogen dioxide in benzene gives the four possible 2,5,6-trinitrocyclohex-3-enones (6), (7), (8) and (9), three 4,5,6-trinitrocyclohex-2-enones (10), (11) and [(12) or (13)], the 2-hydroxy-5,6-dinitrocyclohex-3-enone (14), quinone (17) and the 4-nitro dienone (3). The fuming nitric acid nitration of pentamethylphenol (1) for 90 h gives most of these products, except that 4-nitratomethyl-2,5,6-trinitrocyclohex-3-eones (21), (22), (23) and (24) are isolated. X-ray crystal structures are reported for compounds (6), (7), (8), (10), (11), (14) and (21).

1,2-bis[10,15-di(3,5-di-tert-butyl)phenylporphyrinatonickel(II)-5-yl]diazene was synthesised via copper-catalyzed coupling of aminated nickel(II) 5,10-diarylporphyrin ("corner porphyrin") and its X-ray crystal structure was determined. Two different crystals yielded different structures, one with the free meso-positions in a trans-like orientation, and the other with a cis-like disposition. The free meso-positions of the obtained dimer have been further functionalized while the synthesis of a zinc analog has so far been unsuccessful. The X-ray crystal structure of the dinitro derivative of the dinickel(II) azoporphyrin was determined, and the structure showed a cis-like disposition of the nitro groups.

Reaction of 3,4,5-trimethylbiphenyl (1) with nitrogen dioxide gives four mononitro compounds (3)-(6) and three dinitro compounds (7)-(9). Similar reaction of 2,3,4-trimethylbiphenyl (2) gives three nitroaromatic compounds (11)-(13), three nitrate esters (14)-(16), and two nitro dienones (17) and (18). Dinitro dienone (17) rearranges in solution to give the corresponding hydroxy nitro dienone (19). The differences between the two sets of products are discussed, and an addition-elimination mechanism is proposed for the mode of formation of the nitro dienones (17) and (18). X-Ray crystal structures are reported for compounds (4) and (19).

Chlorinations of 2-t-butyl-4-chloro-6-methylphenol(10) and of the mixture of 4,6-dichlorocyclo-hexa-2,ddienones (11) and (12) give the tetrachloro ketones (13)-(15). Reaction of the dichlorocyclohexa-2,4-dienone mixture with nitrogen dioxide gives predominantly dichloro dinitro ketones (17) which rearrange on chromatography to yield the hydroxy dienone (21). X-Ray crystal structures are reported for compounds (13)-(15), (20) and (21).

Reaction of 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol (6) with nitrogen dioxide in benzene gives the trinitro ketone (11), but in cyclohexane gives both trinitro ketone (11) and the hydroxy dinitro ketone (12),in addition to the 4-nitro dienone (10). Some reactions and X-ray crystal structures of compounds (11) and (12) are described.

The hexafluorophosphate salts [Fe(C5H4tBu)2]PF6 (1) and [Co(C5 H4 tBu)2]PF6 (2) crystallize in isotypic structures with centrosymmetric cations which have a staggered (transoid) conformation of the exactly parallel ring ligands (conformational angle τ = 180°). The tetrachlorocobaltate salt, [Co(C5H4tBu)2 ]2 CoCl4 (3), contains one almost eclipsed (τ = 140.4°) and one almost staggered (τ = 101.4°) cobaltocenium cation; in both cases, the cyclopentadienyl ring planes are slightly inclined (by α = 5.4° and 4.1°, respectively) to give more room to the tert-butyl substituents which are bent away from the metal in all three complexes 1 - 3

Reaction of 2-t-butyl-4,6-dimethylphenol(10) with nitrogen dioxide in benzene gives the C4-epimeric 4,5,6-trinitrocyclohex-2-enones (13) and (14). In contrast, similar reaction of 2,4-di-t-butyl-6-methyl-phenol (11) gives substituted cyclohex-3-enones, 2,5,6-trinitro ketones (20)- (23), 2-hydroxy-5,6-dinitro ketones (27) and (28) and the 6-hydroxy- 2,5-dinitro ketone (29). Reaction of 2,4,6-tri-t-butylphenol (12) with nitrogen dioxide gives initially the 4-nitro dienone (35), but de-t- butylated products (36) and (37) are formed in long-term reactions. X- ray crystal structures are reported for compounds (13),(14),(21),(22), (23), (27), (28) and (29).
