NITROBENZENE SYNTHESIS | LABORATORY EXPERIMENT | ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

PIKAI PHARMACY ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In my college lab I performed this experiment i.e. synthesis of nitro benzene .
Nitrobenzene is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H5NO2. It is a water-insoluble pale yellow oil with an almond-like odor. It freezes to give greenish-yellow crystals. It is produced on a large scale from benzene as a precursor to aniline. In the laboratory, it is occasionally used as a solvent, especially for electrophilic reagents.
MECHANISM OF NITRATION -
The nitration process involves formation of the nitronium ion (NO2+), followed by an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction of it with benzene. The nitronium ion is generated in situ by the reaction of nitric acid and an acidic dehydration agent, typically sulfuric acid:
HNO3 + H+ ⇌ NO2+ + H2O
