Abstract:
The methods and catalysts for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing compounds (oximes, Schiff bases, amides, imides, amines, ureas, urethanes, isocyanates, and azo-compounds) by the interaction of nitro-compounds with carbon monoxide are considered. The reaction mechanisms are discussed and the characteristics of the synthesis of mono- and di-isocyanates are noted. The bibliography includes 128 references.
