Abstract
The nitration of toluene with nitric acid and nitrogen dioxide as nitration agent was studied. The effect of zeolite catalysts was also discussed. By using zeolite as catalysis, the yield of nitro-toluene was improved with nitric acid as nitration agent. The conversion of toluene and yield of nitro-toluene were both greatly enhanced with nitrogen dioxide as nitration agent.
