cf. preceding abstract The nitration of 9-phenylxanthylium perchlorate (I) yielded 91% 9-(m-nitrophenyl)xanthylium perchlorate (II), as shown by hydrolysis to the carbinol (III) and reduction to 9-(m-nitrophenyl)xanthene (IV). The structure of IV was established by condensation of xanthydrol (V) with ο-O2NC6H4NH2 (VI) to 9-(4-amino-3-nitrophenyl)xanthene (VII) from which the NH2 group was removed by diazotization and H3PO2. These cationic salts orient the entering NO2 group to the m-position. Xanthone (VIIIa) and PhMgBr yielded 86% 9-phenylxanthydrol (VIII), m. 158-9° (Gomberg and Cone, C.A. 5, 90). HClO4 (5.85 g. 70%) added with stirring to 10 g. VIII in 50 cc. C6H6 and 25 cc. Me2CO, and the mixture refrigerated yielded 13.4 g. I, yellow crystals, m. 280-1° (explosive !). Excess FeCl3-HCl added to 2. g. VIII in HCl yielded 3.14 g. 9-phenylxanthylium ferrichloride, yellow crystals, m. 170°. Cold, concentrated HNO3 added during 5-10 min. to 10 g.

HClO4 (5 cc. 70%) added with stirring to 10 g. IX in 30 cc. 1:1 C6H6-Me2CO, and the mixture allowed to stand (cold) 24 h., yielded 11.3 g. II, yellow crystals from AcOH, m. 255-7° (corrected). Excess FeCl3-HCl added to 10 g. IX in a min. of concentrated HCl and chilled 24 h. at 5° yielded 13.6 g. 9-(m-nitrophenyl)xanthylium ferrichloride, orange crystals from AcOH, m. 242-3° (corrected).

Cold, concentrated HNO3 (30 cc.) added during 5-10 min. (stirring) to 10 g. I in 40 cc. concentrated H2SO4, and the solution poured into ice water and neutralized with NH4OH yielded 11.2 g. crude nitrated carbinol, identical with IX.
