      OrganicSynthesis P2NP     

Swim is wondering if anybee out there has actually dreamt up P2NP using the method described in the following link?
http://www.orgsyn.org/orgsyn/orgsyn/prepContent.asp?prep=CV1P0413
Obviously nitroethane would be used in place of nitromethane. 

In the post "Post 388953 (WizardX: "raffike: Read the procedure below BEFORE you ...", Stimulants)" it was suggested that this would be an effective route to P2NP.  Just curious to see if there has been any success stories.

      I can tell you definitively that this ...     

I can tell you definitively that this procedure works with nitromethane exactly as described.  Also, tried it with what I thought was nitroethane, but after the synth failed it was determined that I had something other than nitroethane.  -zero

      Unlikely     

Unfortunately, it doesnt seem likely that this cold method works for phenyl-2-nitropropenes, according to several exprieces :

Edit: Whoops, nitropopenes I ment, for nitrostyrenes its well established...

      3,4-Methylenedioxyphenyl-2-nitropropene     

I assume you meant to say phenylnitropropenes rather than 'nitrostyrenes' in your post above, right?

It works good for 3,4-Methylenedioxyphenyl-2-nitropropene though: ../rhodium /mdp2np.html
