Abstract

A family of liquid hydrocarbon motor fuel additives known as polynitro alkyls having the general formula R.sub.1 --C(NO.sub.2).sub.2 --R.sub.2 have been found to enhance the overall combustion characteristics of motor fuels by increasing combustion efficiency and reducing undesirable combustion by-products.
