Abstract
A process for preparing the ignition promoter comprises combining a sugar with selected solvents and heating to form a stable solution, reacting the resulting solution with an oxirane and thereafter reacting the resulting product with nitric acid under nitrating conditions. A fuel for use in compression ignition engines contains a lower alcohol and about 0.15 to 30 wt % of the ignition promoter.
