HCID 7416Nitrobenzene

Procedure

The benzene excess based on nitric acid of 2.0% to 20%, preferably of 5.0% to 10% of the theoretical value, relates to the molar ratio of benzene and nitric acid. Theoretically, one mole of nitric acid reacts with one mole of benzene to form one mole of nitrobenzene.
