Summary: | Aromatic nitro compounds are important intermediates in synthetic organic chemistry as well as in the chemical industry. Numerous useful methods for their preparation have been developed in recent years. In this review, recent advances in the synthesis of aromatic nitro compounds are summarized, including the nitration of aromatic hydrocarbons, aryl boronic acids, aryl halides and pseudohalides, aryl carboxylic acids and the oxidation of aryl primary amines and azides. Their mechanisms are discussed.

Bibliography: | Minghua Yang was born in 1971, in Hunan, China. He obtained his B.Sc. degree in chemistry from Hubei Normal University and his M.Sc. from the Hubei University (China). He received his Ph.D. from Nanjing University in 2005 under the supervision of Chengjiang Zhu and Yi Pan and then entered Lishui University as an associate professor. In 2006, he joined Dr Liu's group at the University of Macquarie (Australia) as a visiting professor and then returned to Lishui University in 2007, where he is still working today. He became a professor in 2010. Apart from the development of the asymmetric reaction for obtaining chiral organochalcogenides, his research interests include the transition-metal-catalyzed formation of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. Guobing Yan was born in 1975, in Jiangxi, China. He obtained his B.Sc. degree from Jinggangshan University, his M.Sc. degree from Suzhou University, and his Ph.D. degree from Tongji University in 2010. He spent two years in 2008 and 2009 as a visiting student in professor Jianbo Wang's laboratory at Peking University. He has been at Lishui University since 2010 as an associate professor. His current research interests focus on the transition-metal-catalyzed activation of inert chemical bonds and green synthetic chemistry.
