Abstract

Tertiary 5-nitrofurylamines were prepared by a nucleophilic substitution of 5-nitro-2-furfuryl bromide (I) with aliphatic secondary amines. According to reaction conditions N-(5-nitro-2-furfuryl)-X-phenylamines or their mixture with N,N-di(5-nitro-2-furfuryl)-X-phenylamines were obtained from the reaction of I with substituted primary aromatic amines. Compound I gave with 2-aminophenol a mixture of O- and N-mono- and disubstituted derivatives, and with ethyl salicylate ethyl 2-(5-nitro-2-furfuryloxy)benzoate.
