Both nitrous and nitric acids were studied in sulfuric acid solutions of varying acid strengths by {sup 15}N NMR spectroscopy. The study gives new insights into the nature of intermediates present at different acid strengths. Furthermore, we have also discovered a novel redox reaction between NO{sub 2}{sup +} and NO{sup +} ions involving the intermediacy of their respective acids. A mechanism is proposed to explain the observed results. 13 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
