Nitration-peroxidation of alkenes for the synthesis of β-peroxyl nitroalkanes has been developed by using tert-butyl nitrite and tert-butyl hydroperoxide. The method presents a new and selective difunctionalization of alkenes to introduce a nitro group and a peroxyl group across the double bonds of alkenes under mild conditions. A radical reaction pathway is proposed by experimental and theoretical studies.
