2-Methyl-6-nitrobenzoic anhydride is an organic acid anhydride also known as the Shiina reagent,[1][2] having a structure wherein carboxylic acids undergo intermolecular dehydration condensation. It was developed in 2002 by Prof. Isamu Shiina (Tokyo University of Science, Japan).[3] The compound is often abbreviated MNBA.
Abstract[]
The reagent is used for synthetic reactions wherein medium- and large-sized lactones are formed from hydroxycarboxylic acids via intramolecular ring closure (Shiina macrolactonization).[4][5] The reaction proceeds at room temperature under basic or neutral conditions. This reagent can be used not only for macrolactonization but also for esterification, amidation, and peptide coupling.
