11. The location of the nitro group in the resulting nitration reaction product is apparently controlled by the nature of the substituent at the ζ position of Tyr-6. In 2, the hydroxyl group at ζ having a strong electron-donating effect causes the nitro group to be introduced to εa to produce an ortho-nitrated compound, 4, whereas, in the case of 1, the methoxyl group at ζ sterically inhibits the introduction of a nitro group to the corresponding position, so that the nitro group is introduced to the less-hindered δa position, which is also activated by the diphenyl ether oxygen, and the nitration product is 8.
