Abstract
Convenient procedures are given for the condensed-phase synthesis Of peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), peroxybenzoyl ni- sponding peracid% sulfuric acid, and sodium nitrate- The compounds of considerable interest because of their physio- logical and action in polluted atmospheres (1-4). Samples of such compounds are routinely needed for cali- several syntheses have been published (I, 5-8). The procedure of Louw et al. (5) is particularly convenient because the re- corrosive reagents are required. trate, and m-chloroperoxybenzoyl nitrate from the corre- position of the ‘H NMR signal from peroxyacetyl nitrate in CC14-benzene mixtures depended on the solvent composition benzene, with K,, = 0.095 at 27 “C.
