%X 2-Fluoro-5-nitrobenzonitrile, an analogue of 1-fluoro-2,4- dinitrobenzene, in which the 2-nitro group has been replaced by a cyano group, has been prepared and made to react with several amines, amino acids, and NH-heteroaromatic compounds. The proton magnetic resonance spectra of some of the resultant N-(2-cyano-4-nitrophenyl) derivatives were compared with the spectra of the corresponding N-(2,4- dinitrophenyl) derivatives and furnish further evidence that the ortho nitro group of the latter derivatives is rotated out of the plane of the aromatic nucleus.
