Abstract
Nitrophenols are formed in aqueous solution upon UV irradiation of phenol and nitrite. The formation of nitrophenols is enhanced by dissolved oxygen and inhibited by the addition of 2-propanol. The mechanism of phenol photonitration involves both .NO2 (or N2O4, reacting with phenol, and 4-nitrosophenol, which is oxidised to 4-nitrophenol. A reaction scheme is proposed based on experimental results.Entities:
