Nitration of benzaldehyde.

  • The carboxylic group is an ortho-para deactivating and meta-directing group. As a result, m-nitrobenzaldehyde is the end product of the nitration of benzaldehyde when the nitro group is connected to the meta position.
  • When benzaldehyde is nitrated, m-Nitrobenzaldehyde results.
  • 3-Nitrobenzaldehyde is employed as an intermediary in the production of various organic compounds, including medicines, plastic additives, chemicals for scent and flavouring, and several aniline colours.
  • Both nitrobenzaldehydes are byproducts of nitrating benzaldehyde using concentrated "mixed acid," which is a solution of nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and water. As a result, m-nitrobenzaldehyde is the end product of the nitration of benzaldehyde when the nitro group is connected to the meta position.
  • Aldehyde exhibits the -R effect, and the carbon atoms in its resonance structures pick up a positive charge at the ortho and para positions. As a result, the electrophile assault takes place at a meta location. Benzaldehyde is a meta-directing substance as a result.
