HNO3 and H2SO4 are used as reagent for the nitration of benzene to nitrobenzene

  • The major reagent which is used in the nitration of benzene is HNO3. It is an electrophilic reaction of Benzene. H2SO4 is also used as a mixture with HNO3 as here H2SO4 act as a catalyst.
  • The temperature is not allowed to exceed more than 50 degree Celsius.
  • As a result of this yellow coloured nitro benzene is formed which is pretty oily in nature.
