Reaction Steps

1-methanesulfonyl-3-trifluoromethylbenzene (220 mg; 1 mmol) was dissolved at 0° C. in 3 mL 98% sulfuric acid and 2 mL of 100% HNO3 were added. The mixture was heated 2 hours at 80° C. and then poured onto ice; a precipitate was isolated: 110 mg (0.40 mmol; 40% yield) of 1-methanesulfonyl-3-nitro-5-trifluoromethylbenzene were obtained as a solid.
