Abstract

The photochemical reaction between tetranitromethane and 1,2-dimethylnaphthalene gives, among other adducts, a product of internal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a nitro group from the trinitromethyl group across the 1,2-double bond of the primary adduct, 1,2-dimethyl-r-3-nitro-4- trinitrometnyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalene.
