Commercial triethylamine (Eastman Kodak Co.) was used without further purification. Stoichiometric amounts of triethylamine based on olefin produced poor yields of nitro olefins owing to the slow rate of elimination of the nitro nitrite compounds. A twofold molar ratio of triethylamine to olefin was sufficient to produce 1-nitro-l-octadecene from l-nitro-2-octadecyl nitrite in 92% yield. The same excess applied to the crude reaction product from cyclooctene and dinitrogen tetroxide resulted in only an 80% yield of 1-nitrocyclooctene.
