ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an improvement in a process for nitrating an aromatic or substituted aromatic compound e.g., toluene or ortho-xylene, by reacting such aromatic or substituted aromatic in the presence of nitric acid. The improvement for enhancing the rate of nitration as well as the selectivity of nitration at the para-position in this process comprises carrying out the nitration reaction in the presence of at least an effective amount of anhydrous calcium sulfate or soluble anhydrite.
