A methodology for the efficient conversion of aromatic sulfonamides into their mono-nitro derivatives using tert-butyl nitrite is reported. The reaction exhibits a high degree of chemoselectivity for sulfonamide functionalized aryl systems, even in the presence of other sensitive or potentially reactive functionalities.
