1-(5-Nitro-2-thienyl)ethanone is a nucleophilic compound that reacts with the electron pair of an alkene. This reaction is called nucleophilic attack and it leads to the formation of a new C=C bond. In this process, 1-(5-Nitro-2-thienyl)ethanone acts as a nucleophile, and the alkene acts as an electrophile. The nitrate ion can be used to convert 1-(5-Nitro-2-thienyl)ethanone into its more reactive form, nitrous acid. This process is called radical coupling. Nitrous acid can react with chlorides to form nitrites in high yield. The reaction parameters for nitrite formation are enthalpic and thermodynamic.
