Reaction Steps
The upper reaction scheme is the conversion of the N-tertiarybutyl,3,3 dinitroazetidine to the N-acetyl, 3,3 dinitroazetidine. The reaction conditions are a catalytic amount of boron trifluoride etherate as the Lewis acid and acetic anhydride as the solvent-reactant. The temperature is 125 degrees C. As shown there was about a 90% yield. The compound is nitrated with 70% nitric acid and heated to give TNAZ.
