Description
Summary:Reactions of 5-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide with bromine and nitric acid lead to the electrophilic substitution of the hydrogen atom in the meta -position with respect to the nitro group. At thebromination the primarily formed 4-bromo-6-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide when kept in the solution loses an oxygen atom forming 4-bromo-6-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1-oxide and an isomerization product, 8-bromo-6-nitrospiro[3 H -[2,1,4]benzoxadiazine-3,1′-cyclohexane] 4-oxide. The latter exposed to light turns into 4-bromo-6-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide. The reaction of the initial 1,3-dioxide with nitric acid afforded 4,6-dinitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexan]-7-ol 1-oxide whose heating in o -dichlorobenzene resulted in 3,5-dinitro-1,8-diazatricyclo[7.5.0.0 2,7 ] tetradeca-2(7),3,5,8-tetraen-6-ol.
