2,5-Bis(methoxymethoxy)-1,3-dinitrobenzene (6)⁵

The current procedure was adapted from Kelly et al.5 with modification. To a solution 5 (1.18 g, 5.9 mmol) in anhyd THF at 0 °C was added DIPEA (3.1 mL, 18.1 mmol) followed by MOM-Cl (1.7 mL, 22.1 mmol). The solution was allowed to warm to r.t. and stirred for 3 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (200 mL) and washed with deionized H₂O (2 × 200 mL). The organic layer was dried (anhyd Na₂SO₄), filtered, and concentrated to give 6 (1.7 g, 5.9 mmol, quant.) as a yellow oil that was used directly without further purification; R_f = 0.86 (hexane/EtOAc, 1:1). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 7.68 (s, 2 H), 5.24 (s, 2 H), 5.14 (s, 2 H), 3.50 (s, 3 H), 3.49 (s, 3 H). ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 153.0, 146.6, 138.4, 116.6, 103.1, 95.3, 58.4, 56.8. MS (ESI): m/z [M + Na]⁺ calcd for C₁₀H₁₂N₂O₈Na⁺: 311.0; found: 311.0.
