This is the same material I posted a thread about some time ago:
http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=159807
Klapötke has done some work on it and I attached the paper in that thread. I haven't had the time to do further experiments with the nitration yet,
but one difference in the preparation of the substrate is that Klapötke reacts ethanolamine with diethyloxalate rather than directly with oxalic
acid. I would think that you would get a salt instead of a condensation product otherwise.
