ResumoGas phase Ionization Potentials can be correlated with solution Oxidation Potentials for phenols and used to predict the likelihood of successful nitration using the two-phase procedure. The interaction of steric and electronic effects then determines the sites of nitration by radical recombination of the phenoxy radical and NO2. Nitration of dioxybenzenes may give insights into the nitration mechanism
