Abstract Phenolic compounds can be nitrated by 65% nitric acid in the presence of catalytic amounts of montmorillonite KSF and bismuth(III) nitrate to give the corresponding nitrated products in good yields in a heterogeneous phase. The co‐catalyst of KSF and Bi(NO 3 ) 3 can be easily recovered and reused in the next batch of nitration.
